Common reasons for network problems include:
- Slow local internet speeds (when not using a VPN)
- High user traffic at specific VPN server locations
To fix these problems, you can attempt the following solutions:
- Assess your local internet speed by disabling the VPN temporarily
- Try out different network connections like WiFi, 4G, or 5G with the VPN turned off to pinpoint any connection issues. For instance, if your WiFi is inconsistent, consider switching to a mobile data connection.
- Disable the VPN, select a different server location, and reconnect
- If you prefer to maintain a connection to the same geographical area, disconnect and reconnect as this may connect you to another server within the same region.
- Keep testing until you discover the most appropriate server for your needs.
