Slow VPN? 🐌 Try these 7 quick fixes:
1. Pick a nearby, low-load server
The farther your data travels, the slower it feels. If your connection lags, switch to a VPN server closest to your real location. If your VPN offers auto-connect, let it pick the best server for you and check if that improves your speeds.
2. Change the VPN protocol
Your VPN protocol is like the lane your traffic travels in: some are faster than others. Start with WireGuard for the best balance of speed and security. If that’s blocked, try OpenVPN with UDP (good for streaming and calls). Use OpenVPN with TCP only if you need extra reliability.
3. Update your VPN app and device
Don’t skip updates as outdated apps and softwares can drag down your VPN performance. Start with updating your VPN app and software, then restart your device and power-cycle your router for 30 seconds.
4. Use split tunneling for bandwidth-heavy apps
Some apps don’t need VPN protection (like game launchers, big downloads, or cloud backups). With split tunneling, you can route those outside the VPN so that important apps (calls, streaming, or banking) stay smooth inside the tunnel.
5. Try a different port
Some networks slow down or block common VPN ports. Switching to OpenVPN over port 443 can help because it blends with normal HTTPS traffic. If that doesn’t work, test other ports (like 1194 or 8080) in your VPN app.
6. Check your Multi-Hop and obfuscation settings
Extra privacy features can often make speeds slower. But in some cases, toggling them on can improve stability. For example, Multi-Hop can help if your ISP takes a slow route to certain destinations. Try switching these features on and off to see what works best for you.
7. Close resource-hungry apps and update software
Bandwidth-hungry apps can slow a VPN down. Temporarily disable them to test, then re-enable for safety. Quit or pause big downloads and re-test your speeds.
