- Switch Servers: If speeds drop, try connecting to a different server for better performance.
- Notify your IPTV provider that you’re using a VPN
- Always select a server close to your actual location—for example, if you’re in the UK, choose UK, Netherlands, or another EU country. Avoid distant locations like the USA or Asia—some users mistakenly connect to Hong Kong and wonder why it doesn’t work.
