What can impact your VPN connection speed?
All of the following elements can result in poor internet performance and unwanted interruptions while browsing the web, streaming video, or downloading media content from the internet:
Connection speed offered by your ISP
The quality of encryption
Distance to the VPN server
VPN server load
The security protocol being used
The firewalls or antivirus software used
How can you ensure the fastest VPN connection?
Server location matters. The more servers your VPN provider offers, the better speeds you’re likely to experience. Plus, a variety of server locations around the globe will ensure you find a server nearby, wherever you are.
We’ve prepared a few presets, enabling you to adjust your VPN connection for downloads, speed, or browsing. Use them to automatically configure the app for the best server and protocol or create your own. For now, presets are only available on macOS.
It’s only natural that when too many users connect to the same server, the connection speed drops. No worries here! Just hit the Quick Connect button in the NordVPN app, and you will be automatically connected to the best server available.
