Which VPN were you using if you don't mind me asking? A free one or one that throttles or blocks torrenting may explain the horrible speed.
It was such a long time ago, I don't remember. All I remember is that everything that required an internet connection was multiple times slower than normal. I don't reside in a popular location so to my knowledge, I don't think there's nearby servers and such that would make my VPN connection ok. Although i could be wrong with my limited knowledge.
I had a family member and also a friend with a paid VPN that experienced the same issues so I don't want to waste my money on it if I don't have to, to be honest.
Gotcha. It's not compulsory anyway.
