- Norton VPN has added 25 new server locations, bringing its total to over 130 locations in 90 countries.
- The update introduces a new manual IP rotation feature, allowing users to swap their virtual IP address on demand without dropping the connection.
- The new manual IP tools are available now on Windows and Mac, with iOS and Android support coming soon.
Norton announced a major upgrade to its VPN service that significantly expands its server network, as well as a new privacy tool that swaps IP addresses on the fly.
The Norton VPN server network now includes over 130 locations in over 90 countries. This includes 25 new locations across America, Europe, Asia Pacific, Africa and the Middle East, perfect for users looking for a faster connection or looking to bypass geo-blocking.
In addition to the increased number of servers, Norton added manual IP address rotation to help users overcome temporary blocks from streaming services and websites. This feature allows you to instantly switch to a new virtual IP address on demand, without disconnecting your active VPN session.
More locations, more control
Until now, if a site blocked your VPN address, you usually had to disconnect, change servers, and wait for the connection to come back. Norton’s new approach removes this friction entirely.
“Today, VPN users expect more than just a secure connection: they want flexibility that fits the way they actually live online,” said Himmat Bains, product manager at Norton VPN, in a recent blog post.

“Expanding our IP rotation capabilities is a direct response to this. Users can now choose between automatic IP rotation, which refreshes their VPN IP every 30 seconds in the background, and our new manual IP rotation, which gives them the same control on demand.”
If you’re relying on one of the best VPNs to unblock Netflix libraries abroad or watch sports while traveling, this on-demand IP switching could be a major upgrade. Instantly generating a new IP address helps you smoothly bypass platform restrictions while keeping your connection encrypted.
The server expansion itself is another big win. The 25 new locations include locations like the Bahamas, Puerto Rico, Monaco, Kenya and the United Arab Emirates, building on Norton’s previous addition of 55 new locations in 2025 and demonstrating a clear commitment to growing its global presence.
“With Norton VPN expanding to more than 130 server locations in more than 90 countries, users now have more locations to choose from, helping them stay connected to the online content and services they rely on, browse with more privacy, and access a more localized online experience, all backed by the reliable protection that Norton VPN is designed to provide,” added Bains.
Who benefits from the upgrade?
If you’re already subscribed to a Norton VPN plan, the good news is that over 130 server locations are currently available across the board.
As for the much-anticipated manual IP address rotation feature, it is currently available to users running Norton VPN for Windows and Mac.
If you primarily use your smartphone or tablet to stay safe on public Wi-Fi, you’ll have to wait a little longer. Norton has confirmed that support for iOS and Android devices is currently “coming soon.”
