      From: malQRMassimilation@gmail.com              By James Milin-Ashmore              T-Mobile throttling is frustrating, but it can be easily resolved by       using a Virtual Private Network (VPN). Here’s everything you need to       know to get started.              Throttling is a term used to describe when your Internet Service       Provider (ISP) slows your connection on purpose. T-Mobile is one of       many ISPs known to throttle bandwidth, and there are a variety of       reasons why it may decide to slow down a user’s connection speeds. An       ISP may throttle bandwidth for numerous reasons:              * The network may be congested, with too many users and not enough        bandwidth to meet increased demand. As such, individual users may        see their speeds throttled.              * Your ISP may prioritize some sites and services over        others. Companies have been known to pay for ISP prioritization,        ensuring faster speeds for their services. This can conversely lead        to a slowdown for any services that aren’t paying extra.              * In an effort to discourage the use of torrents or illegal        streaming,an ISP might throttle bandwidth for these activities.              * Even with an ‘unlimited’ plan, T-Mobile will slow speeds if you’re        using large amounts of bandwidth per month. T-Mobile says mobile        customers that have used more than 50GB of data in a single billing        period are “heavy data users,” and are a lower priority compared to        everyone else.              * If you’re using a tethered connection, T-Mobile prioritizes        on-device traffic.              https://www.bleepingcomputer.com/vpn/guides/how-to-bypass-t-mobile-throttling/              --       (Please remove QRM for direct replies)              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
