What are you guys using PIA on? Cell? Laptop? Desktop?

When it works, it works great. Issue I have is this. On my MS Surface, it's set to start when Windows loads. Problem I have is I fire up windows and then several minutes after it's up and running I start getting notifications that it's trying to connect. Also seem to randomly disconnect and then re-attempt.

Works pretty good on my phone but murders my battery overnight. And with frequent changes between cell data and WIFI, at times it doesn't properly re-connect unless I open the app, swipe to disconnect and then reconnect. Every time I notice webpages or apps taking too long to load content, I can see data has stopped moving around in the PIA notification bar on my phone.

I want to use it more (especially on holidays) but seems to create a lot of connectivity issues for me.
