So what if you are doing something important for which you don't want to interrupt the connection?

The core of this request isn't addressed, but there have been custom profiles implemented now since this was posted and all of the comments made.

I'd rather have a manual refresh/reconnect button. AND some sort of pop-up notification or alert so that I'm made aware when my connection exceeds a % load, based on a setting I can change for the % threshold.

I find myself having to disconnect then reconnect. But at this point, I might as well just setup a second profile to the Fastest Country and then I can click between them, even though they are technically the same.

My VPN tends to just stop if left on over night - regular rechecking for a better server within already set preferences (i.e. country) would be ideal.

We really need more votes on this. I currently live in Canada and geographically closest server to me is Toronto (which I might add has relatively fewer servers), and has average server load of about 70-80% throughout the day and that is frustrating. I have to constantly keep checking the server load and re-connect to server with lower load.

The load balancing comment from Ben K hits the nail on the head. There shouldn't be servers at capacity and others at 60% or lower. Please allow automatic switching of servers for users. I know that some servers might have higher loads, because they are not blocked by specific services, so we sometimes need to switch to them, but maybe there is a way to allow us to quickly switch to some favorite servers that we can set, which we have found work for our specific needs and then enable an "optimized speed" mode, which switches us to servers with lower usage.

I agree with this but would prefer that some sort of load balancing be done when you connect to a given country or state so that you connect to the lowest load and, if possible, lowest latency server.

Yes! I second this idea! I am constantly finding my server reach 100% and then I have to manually locate a server under less load. Or I have to manually disconnect and connect using the fast profile. It just seems like this could be automated.

We need this feature so bad! Please implement :)
