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!
How tested are the proprietary protocols for data safety?
Nobody knows, externally. That’s the thing about proprietary stuff.
Personally I think they are using a modified open standard and just add an obfuscating layer to the client-server-handshake, but that’s speculation on my end.
