Issues With Proton VPN or Nvidia Shield

Greetings everyone,

Currently using Nvidia Shield Pro with Proton VPN paid service. Over the last 7 days Proton VPN seems to randomly disconnect. When I go and check on the status of the VPN it’s stuck at connecting. Have to close VPN and open it and it connects again until the next disconnect. I first noticed the problem when using streaming services. Longer load times and random picture quality degradation. This is happening with You Tube, Netflix, Prime etc. ISP tech was here 4 days ago and checked the speeds and they were spot on for the speeds I was paying for. For testing purposes I subscribed to Express Vpn for one month. When connected to Express VPN everything worked flawlessly. No disconnects or long loading times for streaming services. Picture quality is perfect with Express VPN. Anyone else experiencing issues with Proton VPN and the problems I listed above?

Thanks in advance!

Same weird issues with it despite the decent amount of recent upgrades but on Nvidia Shield Pro the experience just isn’t the same as the normal Proton VPN Android app for phones.

I ended up picking servers farther away which seemed to help me but I don’t trust that the service is always connected so I often have to go in and check.

I left ExpressVPN and it was pretty flawless with the Nvidia Shield Pro and allowed split tunneling too. I wanted the whole e-mail/VPN/Drive experience so I went with Proton and hopefully they keep progressing!

This is me, exactly what I do, it’ll never be trusted properly until a kill switch is added for Android TV apps. A few weeks back my VPN disconnected leaving me exposed for over an hour, sadly because of this I’ve changed provider until they add the relevant features.
