One example process may include enabling a connection between one of a plurality of client devices and one or more servers via one of a plurality of virtual private network servers (VPNs), monitoring connection performance of the connection over a period of time, modifying one or more connection parameters associated with the connection of the one client device based on the monitored connection performance, identifying whether an increase or decrease in a performance of the connection has occurred based on the modified one or more connection parameters, when an increase in performance is identified, storing a current connection status and the modified one or more modified connection parameters in a temporary data file, and transmitting the temporary data file to one or more of the other VPN servers and the plurality of client devices.
