Common reasons for network problems include:
- Slow local internet speeds (when not using a VPN)
- High user traffic at specific VPN server locations
To address these issues, you can attempt the following solutions:
- Verify your local internet speed by briefly disabling the VPN
- Experiment with different network connections like WiFi, 4G, or 5G while the VPN is off to detect any connection issues. For instance, if your WiFi is inconsistent, consider switching to a mobile data connection.
- Disable the VPN, choose a new server location, and then reconnect
- If you prefer to remain connected to the same geographical area, disconnect and reconnect, as this may connect you to a different server in the same region.
- Keep conducting these tests until you locate the most appropriate server for your needs.
