My ISP seems to be throttling my VPN connection. Just started a week or so ago. Anyone have any tips for correcting this shit?
Edit: Sorry, I didn’t leave much info. I guess I was thinking in more general terms. I use PIA, have for years. I’ve tried to change protocols and ports, my VPN speed still sits around 10K. Just ridiculous. Speed test without VPN:
SOLVED!! OK, I’m an absolute idiot. The tl;dr I had accidentally toggled the Toggle Alt. Rate Limits setting. Thank you everyone for attempting to help that which couldn’t be helped!
I’ve tried everything but different countries. I’ll get back to you on that.
Edit: Nope. Everything I change seems to make no difference in speed. Not slower, not faster.
Check your VPN provider and see if they offer alternate VPN types besides OpenVPN and Wireguard. If you’re lucky, your ISP might not throttle it yet. For example, ProtonVPN has a “stealth” protocol and Mullvad has ShadowSock
