[QUOTE="Jonny Quest, post: 1119734, member: 99434"] I'm wondering if it's just me, but the last couple of times at the coffee shop when connecting with the Proton free version, it connects to a Netherland server, which takes it some time to do from the central US. So I disconnect, and it reconnects to the Netherlands again. Now the third time it connects to Romania, 4th time Japan. Since there are no options to choose a server, but Quick Connect/Fastest Server I really don't have any options. Proton used to connect to a US server at the first attempt when I started it, or at least by the 2nd Change server. Is this something they're intentionally doing (allowing) from their end, to hopefully get me so exasperated that I'll buy the paid version, or again, is it just me? Edit: I resolved it by using a free 1 year license of BD VPN Premium I was given. It may not be Proton or Mullvad, but at least the speeds aren't to bad, there are some nice options and I can easily change the server locations as desired. [/QUOTE]
