In the US you can typically drink from the tap but I would advise not, some areas are really bad to drink from the tap, but you should always have a filter at the very least. boiling isn’t so necessary.
I once visted Austria (Innsbruck to be precise) and the water there was so incredible straight from the tap. It would be ice cold, so fresh and clean. I think they have the best water in the world there.
I noticed similar things but never on wifi. I have used an Austrian sim card in other EU countries, and whenever I connect to a VPN server with the “Fastest” profile, it will connect me to an Austrian server every time.
I guess it makes sense but I still don’t fully understand why local servers aren’t considered faster. Anyway I never had an issue with wifi. Maybe you aren’t actually connected to the wifi somehow?
