VPN speed: what to expect
A good VPN adds little overhead. Here’s what affects VPN speed, how to test it honestly, and why VPNTYPE averages 75+ Mbit/s with modern protocols.
What affects VPN speed
- Distance to the server
- Your base connection speed
- Protocol (WireGuard is fastest)
- Network congestion and ISP throttling
How to test it
Run a speed test with the VPN off, then on, using a nearby server. A small drop is normal; a large one usually means a distant server or a congested network.
Frequently asked questions
Will a VPN slow me down a lot?
Usually not — with WireGuard and a nearby server the difference is often hard to notice.
Why is a distant server slower?
Greater distance adds latency and can reduce throughput; pick a closer server for speed.
