A. 1. Check your internet connection: Ensure that your Wi-Fi or mobile data is stable and has a good signal. You can do this by running a speed test using a service like Speedtest.net. If your base connection is slow, the VPN will also be slow.
2. Change the VPN server: Open ClearVPN and try connecting to a different server. Sometimes, certain servers may be overloaded, leading to high ping and packet loss. Choose a server that is geographically closer to you for better performance.
3. Use a wired connection: If possible, connect your device to the internet using an Ethernet cable instead of Wi-Fi. This can help reduce ping and packet loss significantly.
4. Disable background applications: Close any applications that may be using bandwidth in the background, such as streaming services or large downloads, to improve your VPN performance.
B. 5. Adjust VPN settings: In ClearVPN, check if there are options to optimize your connection settings. Some VPNs allow you to switch between different protocols (like OpenVPN, IKEv2, etc.) which can affect speed and stability. Experiment with these settings to find the best performance.
