Prior to changing protocols within the ZeusVPN app, ensure you disconnect first. You can modify and switch the VPN protocol by disabling the “Automatic Protocol Selection” option.
It’s important to note that the VPN protocol you select can affect your connection’s performance. Be sure to choose the suitable protocol when connecting to a VPN server. While ZeusVPN suggests the automatic protocol for optimal settings, you have the flexibility to manually switch to a different protocol if needed.
Protocol Guide:
WireGuard (Recommended):
WireGuard offers a swift and secure VPN connection for browsing and streaming.
UDP:

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