Huge +1 for Mullvad for their pricing model. 5€/month regardless of "plan" and you can buy as many or as few months as you like. I never feel chained to Mullvad, never worried about subscription running out or getting charged at random moments. Pay 5€, watch whatever you want on the foreign tv websites, forget about vpn for the next 3 months.
If you love Mullvad's pricing, you may check out iVPN's one-week plan for $2. Like Mullvad, you don't need an email address to register, just generate an ID and supports WireGuard. Personally, both Mullvad and iVPN have a similar connectivity performances.
Have you tried changing the MTU? They both mention that on their support pages.
Never tried it. All the time, I'm connected wirelessly.
Just realized that I misread your previous comment. I thought you had connectivity problems, but you just said that both Mullvad and IVPN have similar connectivity performance. Sorry
Mullvad also gives you free multi-hop. It's not particularly useful for torrenting, but it's great for privacy in general. But it's not available in the mobile apps, so I will stick with IVPN.
