Not specific to VPNs at all but in general, the MTU is the largest size packet that a particular network (virtual or physical) can handle in a single packet transmission. Experiment with each setting starting from Low, until it stops working, then back off by one. I would suggest, for performance reasons, to use the largest value that seems to work. This should be analogous to the 'packet size' setting of your other unnamed VPN. This is the largest amount of data that will be sent at once. You can toggle among values such as Low, Medium, High, etc. Look towards the bottom for the setting called MTU. I have looked at and tried many examples on the Torguard website without luck. The other VPN I am using is blocked by many streaming video services.ĭoes the 'use small packet' working on the other VPN give anyone and idea of what I could do to get Torguard to work well? I have sat for an hour and tried every port/auth/ protocol combination without luck. I would like to try and make Torguard work as the local VPN streaming bundle worked great when it worked.

I can then switch to the other VPN (with use small packets selected) and all is well. However both up and down are about a 1/5 of what they should be and overall it is unreliable (a few hours later it will slow to a crawl). The only setting on Torguard that will get the upload to work is when I use 4443 stealth for port/auth.

I found selecting 'use small packets' on the other VPN service took care of upload and both upload and download speeds are great. I played with settings (protocols, port/auth) on both VPN Android apps. I use another VPN service and I noticed the same problem with that service at the same time so something seemed to have changed with Visible.

Speeds use to be great then roughly six months ago I lost all upload capability when Torguard was turned on (speedtest download is good, no upload. The cell phone internet source is Visible Wireless (a MVNO of Verizon) with the Torguard dedicated VPN (streaming bundle) in San Diego (connected one device at a time) Setup: running Torguard (current and previous versions) using the Android app on a Pixel XL and Pixel 3.
