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!
If you’re in the UK, any targeted throttling of your connection is considered traffic shaping and is illegal pretty much always.
Your ISP is required to publish documentation on all traffic throttling that they employ, even if it’s none. Check out their documentation and see what it says, if you’re in the UK.
