Frequent reasons for network problems include:
- Slow local internet speeds (without a VPN)
- Increased user traffic at specific VPN server locations
To tackle these problems, you can try the following approaches:
- Verify 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 different server location, and then reconnect
- If you wish to remain connected to the same geographical region, disconnect and reconnect, as this might connect you to an alternative server within the same area.
- Continue conducting these tests until you determine the most appropriate server for your needs.
