Getting Dropped and Download speeds

[Veep Peep 14]

Hello,

Are the server we connected to impacted by usage over 50%?  Lately I have been getting from applications (they tell me they can't connect or I have no internet) or download speeds are very slow.  I usually use the Vancouver ones as they have the lowest latency.
But they are usually all over 50%.

When I use other ones that in the green (<50%) I see to have faster speeds. I have updated by system.  I do need to update Eddie.  Thoughts?  Thanks,

FWIW, wireguard seems to handle loaded servers better than OpenVPN. You might nudge Eddie into trying it. (Not an Eddie user here, so I leave details to others.)

Open the Settings in Eddie -> Protocols -> Wireguard UDP (You might want to first deselect the automatic check box)
Take one of the given options for Wireguard. If your ISP is blocking Wireguard for whatever reason, try to use a higher port number >45000.

Newer (few years now) VPN protocol with extremely streamlined software so runs fast, fast, fast on most systems.  See wireguard.com and many online overviews.
