But when ISP identifies a user in torrenting activities through IP address, they limit your speed. It is possible that you haven’t exceeded the limit of your internet data. ISPs specifically restrict bandwidth usage when individual access stuff like torrenting or is downloading streaming content in excess.If it’s more than your internet package, then make sure you have all your dues cleared to evade speed lags in the future. When you think that you have used enough of your internet data, it’s better to check all your downloaded data and streaming content you have consumed. However, it might sometimes remain unknown. This bandwidth limit is sometimes addressed to the users. Once a user reaches that, their internet slows down regardless of the traffic type. However, to avoid ISP throttling you may use a VPN which could also help you with better speed testing. After the speed test, compare it with your allocated bandwidth speed if there is a huge difference, your ISP might be speed throttling. You can confirm ISP throttling by regularly monitoring when you face such speed lags and then performing a speed test. ISP may throttle bandwidth at a specific time in a day to reduce congestion on its servers.
There are some other reasons as well, on which you as a user could experience slow internet speed due to ISP throttling. To save data, your ISP imposes a bandwidth cap, and when you reach that data limit, your speed becomes miserably low. It is probably because their ISP has restricted them to a certain threshold. Most people complain about slow speed at the end of the month. Also, they degrade certain sites or search engines to increase traffic on their own channels or to the ones who are paying them. ISP usually slows down the speed due to certain reasons, such as to reduce traffic load on servers at peak times. However, with the overturning of the net-neutrality rule set, the chances of ISP throttling are extreme without any legal restrictions. It usually happens while browsing internet content and downloading files. It is an extreme hassle internet users experience. I remember Three used to have such policies but were made to change them because of these regulations but Vodafone's getting away with it.ISP throttling is a term for reduced internet speed, deliberately done by the internet provider. Perhaps I'm wrong but I don't think they're following the rules.

I was also sure I remember reading about how some EU regulation meant that if you've got a SIM card with mobile data you're free to use it in any way on any device you wish - but on Vodafone's website for example their 5G Gigacube service says that if you use the SIM in any other device you'll be 'charged accordingly' and also say that their unlimited phone SIMs can only be used in phones. I'm sure there are laws which say they shouldn't prioritise certain services over others but if it's being done to 'manage the network' then I think it gets a pass. VPNs are generally highly prioritised though. EE wasn't even an unlimited plan but certain services are slowed down or 'prioritised' (as they say) differently resulting in very different speeds. I used to experience exactly the same thing with both EE and 3. I would be inclined to believe the traffic is managed. In all tests 2,5 and 6 all request time out. Tracing route to .uk ġ1 57 ms 42 ms 38 ms I have actually done a traceroute against a server to google before I'll copy the results below this was without a VPN I haven't performed one with a VPN yet but I can do that later if it will help.
It's normal to get 10Mb/s or under on a speedtest on 4G based on your area etc. After speaking with Vodafone's technical team regarding faster speeds on a VPN they say it's non-sense and say "We don't throttle you" bla bla bla, you are not connected to the vodafone network with a VPN etc.
