Frequent reasons for network problems include:
- Slow local internet speeds (when not using a VPN)
- High traffic from users at specific VPN server sites
To fix these problems, you can consider the following suggestions:
- Assess your local internet speed by temporarily turning off the VPN
- Experiment with various network connections like WiFi, 4G, or 5G while the VPN is disabled to pinpoint any connectivity issues. For instance, if your WiFi is unstable, try using a mobile data connection.
- Disable the VPN, choose a different server location, and then reconnect
- If you wish to remain connected to the same geographic area, disconnect and reconnect as this might connect you to another server within that region.
- Keep testing until you discover the best server that meets your needs.
