Before switching between protocols in the ZeusVPN app, make sure to disconnect first. You can view and modify the VPN protocol by turning off the “Automatic Protocol Selection” option.

The type of VPN protocol you choose significantly affects the performance and stability of your connection. Therefore, it’s essential to select the correct protocol when connecting to a VPN server. ZeusVPN recommends the automatic protocol as it selects the most suitable connection setting for you. However, feel free to switch between different protocols if the automatic protocol option doesn’t work for you.

Protocol Guide:

WireGuard (Recommended) :

WireGuard offers a swift and secure VPN connection for browsing and streaming.

UDP:

Usually faster than TCP, making it a good choice for streaming, gaming, and downloads.

TCP:

Try this if UDP cannot connect or your network restricts VPN traffic. It may be slower than UDP, particularly on connections with packet loss.

IKEv2:

IKEv2 is one of the fastest VPN protocols, providing a stable connection, and is usually used for streaming and downloading.
