Frequent causes of network problems are:
- Slow local internet speeds (without a VPN in use)
- Increased user activity at specific VPN server locations
To fix these problems, you might consider the following approaches:
- Evaluate your local internet speed by temporarily turning off the VPN
- Experiment with various network connections like WiFi, 4G, or 5G while the VPN is disabled to pinpoint any connectivity issues. For instance, if your WiFi connection is unstable, try switching to a mobile data connection.
- Disable the VPN, select a different server location, and then reconnect
- If you prefer to maintain a connection within the same geographical area, disconnect and reconnect, as this may connect you to a different server within that region.
- Continue these tests until you determine the best server to meet your needs.
