Typical reasons for network problems include:
- Slow local internet speeds (when not using a VPN)
- Elevated user traffic at specific VPN server locations
To remedy these problems, you can attempt the following approaches:
- Check your local internet speed by temporarily turning off the VPN
- Try various network connections such as WiFi, 4G, or 5G with the VPN disabled to pinpoint any 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 wish 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 conducting these tests until you identify the most suitable server for your needs.
