  Have you tried a different computer or mobile?

  Have you turned your computer off and on again?

  Try change connection to TCP instead of UDP. In the settings.

  I've been having the same issues recently.
  Been with them for 3 years, ready to move and unhappy that I pre-paid another year, 3 months ago.

  Changing to UDP didn't work. The only thing that works is throttling the speed of any downloads, and limiting concurrent connections for peer-to-peer traffic.

  I guess PIA are exit-scamming now.

    Are you sure that it's not an issue with your router or ISP? This especially:

    and limiting concurrent connections for peer-to-peer traffic.

    Makes me think that it's rather your router that's getting congested from network traffic.

      I thought this too, and actually bought a new router (with a dual-core 1.6ghz processor).
      It didn't help. I subscribed to TorGuard to try them instead, but have been too busy to set it up and test it :s

        That's weird. I had the same issue, but upgrading my router solved it. But I also limit P2P traffic to 5 concurrent connections by default, having too many might be overwhelming even your new router.

        @0blivion: the thing is, I run 'top' on the router and CPU usage isn't too high.

        I'll post back when I try out torguard, but i dm'd a rep on here a while ago and he told me I won't have these issues with their service.

  try re-installing the program.

  i know this sounds silly, but if you have no network connection you will have no vpn.

  is you network up?
