Frequent reasons for network problems consist of:
- Slow local internet speeds (without using a VPN)
- Increased user traffic at specific VPN server locations
To address these problems, you might consider the following techniques:
- Check your local internet speed by temporarily turning off the VPN
- Experiment with various network connections like WiFi, 4G, or 5G with the VPN disabled to pinpoint any connection issues. For instance, if your WiFi is inconsistent, switch to a mobile data connection.
- Disable the VPN, select a new server location, and then reconnect
- If you prefer to remain connected to the same geographic area, disconnect and reconnect, as this may connect you to a different server within the same region.
- Keep performing these tests until you discover the most appropriate server for your needs.
