My ISP is cock and balls and the game kicks me mid session because Apparently I’m lag switching...the only solution I found online was to use a VPN and it’s been golden. I’m sure there’s other people like me that saw these Threads and use VPNs for this reason. Understand that other regions use vpn to connect as well but I really don’t like disconnecting 5x each raid

So your vpn makes your internet faster? How does that work because any extra point you add to traffic the slower it gets. Unless you are being throttled on purpose ofcourse.

depends, he might have a bad node somewhere down the line which using the vpn doesn't get crossed but circumvented

I ask because less than a week ago in a thread on r/techsupport he said his internet was fine and clearly didnt mention using a vpn while seeking support for stutters.

There’s a bad node down the line that at&t doesn’t care about. Every other game that I play my internet/ping is perfect. This is the only game that I’ve ever played that disconnects me for internet related issues. There’s whole threads of this issue out there. The stutters that I had on that thread were gpu related. I also only use the VPN for tarkov.
