How do I choose a VilaVPN server?

Start with Auto Select. Choose a specific server only when you need its location or a troubleshooting step asks you to compare servers.
- Open VilaNet and sign in.
- Open Server Nodes.
- Choose Auto Select, or select the specific server you need from the list.
- Return to the main screen.
- Select Connect and wait for Connected.
- Test the website or task that led you to choose that server.
A server name or location is not a performance guarantee. If you do not need a particular location, automatic selection is the simpler choice.
Success check
VilaNet remains Connected, ordinary websites load, and the task you chose the server for works. Do not rely only on the selected location or connection label.
If the selected server does not work
- It will not connect: record the server and exact error, try Auto Select once, then follow Cannot connect.
- It connects but traffic fails: follow Connected but no internet.
- It is slow or unstable: return to Auto Select, compare the same task, then follow Slow or unstable connection.
Screenshot needed: capture the current Server Nodes screen with sanitized account and server details. Capture both Auto Select and a specific-server selection before this guide is published.
