Does anyone which is the best VLAN "Virtual LAN" service out there? I'm looking for more stable and faster connection, more games selection and safe and secure so you get less chance for viruses etc. Thanks in advance.
Neither of those options are safe nor secure. If you don't know and trust the people you'll be playing with (or don't trust what might be lurking on their PCs, eg. malware, viruses), you should not use a generic VPN. VPNs were designed to keep the outside people out, not protect you from the inside people.

They do, just aslong as you arn't using it to play pirated games. man what do you do with VPNs except playing Pirated Games I don't know how many times me and my friend had issues playing online due to a firewall settings or modem conflict (ISPs use to block tons of generic ports). We used Hamachi to be able to easily connect to each other, start a "virtual" LAN game and play the games we purchased. Yes, some people use it for piracy but don't paint everyone with the same brush. I mean hell, robbers use cars to get away from the crime scene. Does that mean everyone who is driving a car is a robber?
I use a VPN to play Silent Hunter 4 as there is no other way. I bought the game when it came out and the multiplayer lobby never worked. Even after purchasing the U-boat missions addon which included the final patch released. If I could play multiplayer without using a VPN then I would preffer that. Not everyone is a pirate out there and there are valid reasons to use VPN software.

VLAN? You're going to need a managed switch and a box that can control it. (PFsense can!) Also those who don't know, Vlans physically seperate your network. As in, you use a managed switch to create a vlan trunk and make a new subnet. Actually explaining a vlan in words is bogus, pictures are better http://wan2.cheesyboofs.co.uk/home.htm (This is with pfsense!)
VPN, you can use hamachi if you're a noob, or OpenVpn(not noob), I use them interchanably. I swap files from my laptops to my servers in seconds with a vpn. In the majority of the world, VPNs are not for gaming, in fact that is a silly reason to use a vpn.
