Typical reasons for network problems consist of:
- Slow local internet speeds (when not using a VPN)
- Increased user traffic at specific VPN server sites
To fix these issues, consider the following approaches:
- Verify your local internet speed by temporarily turning off the VPN
- Try various network connections like WiFi, 4G, or 5G with the VPN disabled to pinpoint any connectivity 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 within the same geographical region, disconnect and reconnect, as this may connect you to a different server within the same area.
- Keep conducting these tests until you determine the best server for your needs.
