Some Windows 7 users reported extremely slow speed after connecting to our VPN servers. If you are affected by this, please follow the following steps.
For Windows 7 64-bit, the OpenVPN folder can be found at C:\Program Files (x86)\BolehVPN\cfg\OpenVPN. For Windows 7 32-bit, it can be found at C:\Program Files\BolehVPN\cfg\OpenVPN
Open the ovpn file of the server that you wish to connect to and add the following lines:
sndbuf 262144
rcvbuf 262144
The modified file should look like this:
The value given above is a suggestion. You can also use the following values to see which one will give the best performance:
32768
65536
131072
262144
524288
1048576
This fix is not pushed out automatically because it might disturb newer operating systems from automatically adjusting the buffer size.
