Slow Speed Using VPN

Question

How can I check the speed of my Internet?

Overview

Typically, slow VPN performance is caused by the customer's slow Internet connection. A minimum of 12 Mbps Internet connection is recommended.

 

Check this by doing a network speed test http://speedtest.net or https://speedof.me/

  • Network speed should be more than 12 Mbps
  • An alternative method is to use WorkMSU rather than VPN since WorkMSU is a remote desktop connection where only the keyboard, video and mouse go back to to the customer laptop while the actual software runs on a server in the computer center on campus

 

NOTE: Some Mac computers will have slow VPN service if IPV6 is enabled
