Frequently encountered reasons for network problems consist of:
- Local slow internet speeds (without employing a VPN)
- Elevated user traffic at specific VPN server locations
To address these problems, consider the following approaches:
- Assess your local internet speed by temporarily turning off the VPN
- Experiment with various network connections such as WiFi, 4G, or 5G with the VPN disabled to detect any connectivity issues. For instance, if your WiFi is inconsistent, switch to a mobile data connection.
- Deactivate the VPN, select a different server location, and then reconnect
- If you prefer to remain connected to the same geographical area, simply disconnect and reconnect, as this may connect you to a different server within the same region.
- Persist with these tests until you identify the most appropriate server for your needs.
