Typical reasons for network problems include:
- Slow local internet speeds (without utilizing a VPN)
- Increased user traffic at specific VPN server locations
To address these problems, you can attempt the following solutions:
- Verify your local internet speed by disabling the VPN temporarily
- Experiment with different network connections like WiFi, 4G, or 5G while the VPN is off to spot any connectivity issues. For instance, if your WiFi connection is unstable, consider switching to mobile data.
- Disable the VPN, select a different server location, and then reconnect
- If you wish to remain connected within the same geographical area, disconnect and reconnect, as this may connect you to another server in the same region.
- Repeat these tests until you find the most appropriate server for your needs.
