I do not have a problem connection to OpenVPN to be able to do work but during the connection I constantly have lags ie screen freezes when trying to do work, or the connection drops and I get the we will retry x5 which sometimes reconnects and sometimes disconnects the VPN connection completely. I then have to reconnect and it works for a while then the process starts happening again. I can't work like this and the company IT has tested everything on their side and all is set up and working fine.
The internet connection is constant and that is not dropping as I will be connected to the internet while this is happening and I can surf no problem.
I've also done the test connection and all comes back fine.
When I call to try and resolve, I get told nothing looks wrong on their side.
Can anyone help?

Hi @HMM
Don't know if there is anything from this quick Google search found on the Sky Community forum helps in anyway.

Hi @HMM
Perhaps other NOW Community Forum Members can offer some further suggestions and assistance.
I don't use a VPN or works VPN so I won't be able to offer any further help, where ever since I disabled IPV6 on my NOW Hub 2 Router a few years back all my internet connected devices doesn't encounter any dropouts anymore.
Hope you get it sorted.

There are two articles referenced there. See if anything in either of them might help you here.

Thanks RoyB - I had just found this and put my vpn address to allow access. I'll see if it has any effect. The problem is I can access my VPN no problem but it keeps lagging and/or dropping , that is the infuriating part.
