Frequent sources of network problems consist of:
- Reduced internet speeds in your area (without a VPN)
- Increased user load at particular VPN server sites
To address these problems, you might consider the following approaches:
- Assess your local internet speed by turning off the VPN temporarily
- Experiment with various network connections like WiFi, 4G, or 5G while the VPN is disabled to pinpoint any connectivity issues. For instance, if your WiFi is unstable, try using a mobile data connection.
- Disable the VPN, select a different server location, and then reconnect
- If you prefer to remain connected to the same geographic area, disconnect and reconnect as this may connect you to an alternative server within the same region.
- Keep conducting these tests until you discover the most appropriate server for your needs.
