Hi Michael,
This is the expected behavior while using a VPN.
This is because a VPN encrypts traffic and data before sending it to a server.
Depending on the distance and capacity of the server, this process may cause a slightly slower, but safer, internet connection.
You can select location on VPN from "P2P" and "Streaming" and check which connection is providing you best internet speed.
Thank you.
AVG secure VPN connected to optimal location at Melbourne IP reduces my internet speed by 60% or more when VPN turned on on my desktop HP all in one.
29/11, Ping 15/34.
I am on the Gold Coast, AUSTRALIA and have Telstra premium 100Mbps connection.
My home wireless modem connection via mobile phone wireless on home network with AVG vpn on is twice as fast as desktop, but half as fast when mobile has VPN off. 112/48Mbps
Please explain?
Is there a fix for this?
