Optimize Your VPN Performance

VPNs can sometimes slow down your connection, but with these optimization tips, you can maintain better speeds while staying secure.

1. Choose a Nearby Server

The closer the VPN server is to your physical location, the faster your connection will be. Select servers in your country or region.

2. Switch to a Faster Protocol

Try WireGuard protocol for the best balance of speed and security. It's faster than OpenVPN while maintaining strong encryption.

3. Use Wired Connection

WiFi adds overhead. Connect your device directly to your router with an Ethernet cable for optimal speeds.

4. Close Background Apps

Applications using bandwidth in the background can slow down your VPN. Close unnecessary programs.

5. Check Your Base Speed

Test your internet speed without VPN first. If your base speed is slow, contact your ISP before blaming the VPN.
