Typical reasons for network problems include:
- Local slow internet speeds (without a VPN in use)
- Increased user traffic at specific VPN server locations
To address these problems, you can attempt the following strategies:
- Assess your local internet speed by turning off the VPN temporarily
- Experiment with different network connections like WiFi, 4G, or 5G while the VPN is disabled to detect any connection issues. For instance, if your WiFi is inconsistent, consider switching 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 might connect you to a different server within the same region.
- Keep testing until you discover the best server that meets your needs.
