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!

    Which ISP, which VPN, which protocol, which server?

    You’re not really giving us a whole lot to work with.

      Sorry, yeah not much to go on. I have Private Internet Access, I’ve tried both protocols and the available ports. Nothing made a difference.

    No VPN = faster

    VPN = slower

    Do you have more info you can share or expand on problems you are experiencing?

    VPNs are known for slowing down your internet.
