Common reasons for network problems include:
- Slow local internet speeds (without using a VPN).
- High user traffic at specific VPN server locations.
To address these problems, consider the following solutions:
- Check your local internet speed by temporarily disabling the VPN.
- Test different network connections such as WiFi, 4G, or 5G with the VPN off to identify any connection problems. For example, if your WiFi is unreliable, switch to a mobile data connection.
- Turn off the VPN, switch to a new server location, and then reconnect.
- If you want to stay connected to the same geographical area, disconnect and reconnect as this could link you to a different server within the same region.
- Continue these tests until you find the most suitable server for your needs.
