Problem With UltraVPN.
Share
I really don’t think, that UltraVPN is the problem.
I would try a simply thing to figure out, whether the line is between the locations is stable.
Use one machine and let it ping a machine at the other location through the VPN tunnel.
Use another machine and ping the public ip of the VPN tunnel without using the VPN tunnel..
The ping times should be relatively constant.
If one of both pings permanently gets timeouts but the other runs fine, we know, whether the line or the VPN has this problem and have to research.
Depending on the OS you’re using to ping,
on linux use
ping [ipaddress]
on windows use
ping -t [ipaddress]
If you can’t browse the internet even when the VPN is off, restart your computer. When your computer reboots, check that your internet is connected and try browsing again. If that doesn’t work, you may need to check your network settings or contact your Internet Service Provider (ISP).
