VPN FAQ

Normally VPN connections are slow due to added plug-ins, protocols, and the encryption, which is providing your devices end-to-end security. However, at FastestVPN your service speed is generally not compromised but also enhanced when turned-on. If you do face any issue regarding speed at some point then know that there must be a critical error at the back-end operations of the VPN. Connect to FastestVPN and check the speed at http://www.speedtest.net and note down the download and upload speeds. Do not close or refresh speedtest page and disconnect FastestVPN. Then in the seedtest page, click on ‘Again’ and it will now find your connection speed without VPN connection. Compare the both speeds i.e. with and without VPN. If there is a major noticeable drop in speed with VPN, try following steps. Change VPN protocol Change server location Turn the firewall off Often speed is related to the protocols you select as PPTP offers higher speed rate but weaker encryption in contrary to the L2TP and OpenConnect, which offer stronger encryption but slightly slower speed.
