When using a VPN (Virtual Private Network) to access Atticus, you might experience slower speeds or increased delays. This happens because a VPN routes your internet traffic through an encrypted connection to a remote server, which adds extra steps to the process. Factors like the distance to the VPN server, server load, and encryption quality can also affect your connection speed.
Tips for Optimizing Your VPN Connection
Choose a VPN server close to your actual location to reduce the distance your data travels. The further the server is from your location, the slower the connection may be.
Switch to a less crowded server if you notice slower speeds. Even the best VPN speeds can fluctuate daily, so the server you’re using may need to be reassessed on a regular basis.
Check your VPN settings and select a protocol optimized for speed and security.
If you're experiencing ongoing issues, disconnecting from the VPN while working in Atticus may help improve your experience.
