Monitor Connection:

Check Bandwidth Allowance: The M-Key comes with a limited data allowance (GB). If you notice the connection slowing down, you may have reached the limit. To verify, go to the MetaMask Dashboard and check your current GB allowance. In the MetaMask Client Application, check the traffic usage and confirm if it matches the allowance shown in the MetaMask Dashboard.

Remove and Generate a New M-Key:

If your GB allowance has been exhausted, click the Delete Icon next to the M-Key to remove it from the app. Follow the steps in the How to Generate a New M-Key section to create and add a new M-Key.
