Common reasons for network problems include:
- Slow local internet speeds (without a VPN)
- High traffic from users at certain VPN server locations
To address these issues, you can try the following approaches:
- Verify your local internet speed by temporarily turning off the VPN
- Experiment with various network connections like WiFi, 4G, or 5G while the VPN is disabled to detect any connectivity issues. For instance, if your WiFi is inconsistent, switch to a mobile data connection.
- Disable the VPN, select a different server location, and then reconnect
- If you prefer remaining connected to the same geographical area, disconnect and reconnect as this may connect you to another server within the same region.
- Keep performing these tests until you identify the most effective server for your needs.
