Typical reasons for network problems consist of:
- Reduced internet speeds locally (without utilizing a VPN)
- Increased user traffic at specific VPN server locations
To address these issues, you might consider the following approaches:
- Assess your local internet speed by temporarily disabling the VPN
- Experiment with different network connections like WiFi, 4G, or 5G with the VPN turned off to pinpoint any connectivity issues. For instance, if your WiFi connection is inconsistent, try switching to a mobile data connection.
- Disable the VPN, select a new server location, and then reconnect
- If you wish to maintain a connection within the same geographical area, disconnect and reconnect, as this may connect you to a different server within the same region.
- Repeat these tests until you identify the best server that meets your needs.
