Hi, I've recently got a new internet connection as a test because my older one sucked hard, I'm from iraq so expect some weird shit over here.. anyway, with this new internet connection i'm having stable 80 ping to my friends teamspeak server, however when i use a VPN, packet loss goes down to 0 instantly, and it goes back up to around 15% to 20% when i turn it off, and on other teamspeak servers i've been having no packet loss either, neither on discord. but the issue still persists in some games like Maplestory 2, it all sounds weird and it is, i don't know why the packet loss is going down when I use a VPN, or why theres no packet loss in some servers/games while there is on other websites/games/servers, any ideas? i tried literally everything and found no answer

Here are some screenshots to give you a bit of an idea

Sounds like the VPN software is causing an issue. Generally, if some things work while others have 100% packet loss it's probably getting blocked. Not all VPNs allow all ports. Your games will use different ports than your web browser. Some are simply blocked by country. There are sites I cannot access from my VPN due to the country my VPN address originates.
