Peak-hour connections and switching routes
If videos buffer in the evening, don't rush to upgrade your plan. Playback also depends on your local network, route, and streaming platform. Pause background downloads first, then compare the current route with a backup using the same video clip. After switching, reopen the playback page so the old connection doesn't keep using the previous exit. InnVPN labels regions and route types separately, making it easier to check them under the same conditions. Keeping a backup route that works in practice is more useful than choosing by region name alone. Your experience will depend on your actual network connection.
