Common reasons for network problems include:
- Slow local internet speeds (without utilizing a VPN)
- Increased user traffic at specific VPN server locations
To address these problems, you can try the following approaches:
- Assess your local internet speed by temporarily turning off the VPN
- Experiment with various network connections like WiFi, 4G, or 5G with the VPN off to find any connectivity issues. For instance, if your WiFi is inconsistent, switch to mobile data.
- Disable the VPN, select a new server location, and then reconnect
- If you wish to remain connected to the same geographical area, disconnect and reconnect, as this may connect you to a different server within the same vicinity.
- Keep conducting these tests until you identify the best server that meets your needs.
