Frequently encountered causes of network problems consist of:
- Slow local internet speeds (without a VPN in use)
- Increased user traffic at specific VPN server locations
To address these issues, consider trying 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 unstable, switch to a mobile data connection.
- Disable the VPN, select a different server location, and then reconnect
- If you prefer to remain connected to the same geographical region, disconnect and reconnect, as this may connect you to another server within the same vicinity.
- Keep conducting these tests until you discover the most suitable server for your needs.
