ISP capped my 30 Mbps connection to 700 Kbps – any way to bypass this?
Hey everyone,
I'm facing a really frustrating internet issue and hoping someone here has experience with this.
My original internet speed is 30 Mbps, but my ISP has put a hard limit on my connection and capped it to around 700 Kbps. even with speedtest it shows 4mb per second while, when I download any file or anything from playstore it maximum limit is only 700kb is clearly throttling, and it's making the connection practically unusable for anything beyond basic browsing.
Here's what I've tried so far:
· Restarted my router and modem
· Checked for any QoS or bandwidth limiting settings in my router
· Tested with a wired Ethernet connection (same result)
None of these worked. I suspect the ISP is using Deep Packet Inspection (DPI) to detect and throttle certain types of traffic, or they've applied a Fair Usage Policy (FUP) cap.
My main questions:
- Has anyone successfully bypassed this type of severe throttling (from 30 Mbps down to 700 Kbps)?
