By "can't connect to internet" you mean actually pages that don't download at all or pages that download really slow?

Customer Replay

Don’t download

Is that VPN program running right now?

Customer Replay

seems like when I connect the expressvpn I have some issue
right now no
and all is working

And when it does, no internet connection?
Got it.

Customer Replay

Yes
i download the software for gaming
everybody tell me ping bad
and I hear download expressvpn will help
sure

Have you connected to different countries through that VPN?

Customer Replay

I will tell you my main problem
i have a steam gaming acount

Customer Replay

i play games and pepole tell me you have high ping and kick me from game
I am now connected to vpn and steam is not connecting at all
cant launch a game

Got it, one second.
First of all, Steam prohibits the usage of VPNs.

Customer Replay

☹️ oh so I now understand I waisted my money on it

It can get you banned.
And to be honest, VPNs usually make your connection significantly slower.

Customer Replay

how can I get my ping faster and not spike in games

Do you use speed test websites?

Customer Replay

nope
do you have support of someone connecting to my pc and fix this issue of ping?

Can you first tell me what your average internet speed is?

Customer Replay

Will show you a test

Customer Replay

I have a issue now connecting to Internet with a cable
only wifi
this vpn made me problems

What do you mean exactly?

Customer Replay

I will remove the software

Okay, but perhaps you could just try another Internet provider?

Customer Replay

then will connect internet and make speed test and shjw

You don't have to remove the software.
You can just turn it off.

Customer Replay

it’s not letting me
somthing is bad

Please, give me some details about that.

Customer Replay

ping red

What is the lower number there?

Customer Replay

ping
9
5.2mb is upload speed

That's where the problem is. The upload speed.

Customer Replay

ok how can fix that

If it always was the same, I'd suggest avoiding VPNs as they lower your speed.

Customer Replay

Ok
and what is to do so will be more fast?

And I guess you could also check whether some other internet provider can be more efficient.

Customer Replay

first of all I and super happy to get your service
this is somthing I had never had beifre

thanks

No problem.
