VPN extremely slow connection

Hello Hans.
Thank you for contacting AVG Community Support.
We apologize for the inconvenience caused to you.
Connect to several different VPN servers - it could be that the issue is related to one server.
Please open AVG Secure VPN, click "CHANGE LOCATION" and select the country and the city, where you would like to connect to.
If the issue still persists please try changing the AVG Secure VPN protocol.
Open AVG Secure VPN and go to ☰ Menu ▸ Settings.
Select "VPN Protocols".
Then select "MIMIC".
After changing the protocol to mimic, try enabling the VPN to connect with the server and check on the issue.
Let us know if the above steps help.
Thank you

Recently, I got an upgrade for the VPN. Since that time, it has been totally unworkable.
Download speeds < 8 Mbs.
Without the VPN, my system runs 948 Mbs.
Please find a solution to this problem.
