Typical reasons for network problems consist of:
- Slow local internet speeds (when not using a VPN)
- High user demand at specific VPN server locations
To address these problems, you may consider the following approaches:
- Check 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 detect any connection issues. For instance, if your WiFi connection is unstable, switch to mobile data.
- Disable the VPN, choose a different server location, and then reconnect
- If you wish to maintain a connection in the same geographical area, disconnect and reconnect as this might connect you to a different server in the same region.
- Keep performing these tests until you determine the best server for your needs.
