VPN download speeds?

Hi Bruce,

We're glad to look into this & help you.
You may experience a slower internet connection when using AVG Secure 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.
However, you can try connecting to different servers (locations) that are available in AVG Secure VPN to identify the server that provides better network connectivity.

I pay big bucks for HIGH SPEED internet connectivity and typically see speeds of >450mbps down and 25mbps up.  When connected to the VPN, however, the best I can get is 50mbps down.  Is there a way to improve that performance?
