Why do ISPs intentionally slow down internet connection? |

Longer answer: When an Internet Service Provider slows down certain services for some users or throttle bandwidth at a particular time of the day, they save their network’s storage. That way, they can fit in more users without increasing network capacity. | Why do ISPs intentionally slow down internet connection?

Our VPN offers high-quality servers with at least 1Gbps port connected. The server capacity increases depending on how demanding those servers are. Since the US and the UK servers are usually the most popular, we invest more in them to make it as fast for our users as possible.
Okay, now the translation: basically, we ensure high VPN speed by supplying our servers by demand. For example, naturally, people mostly connect to servers in big countries, like the US, the UK, Japan, Australia, to name a few.
Since more people connect to those locations, we make sure our VPN servers keep up with the load by constantly monitoring and upgrading servers we manage to maintain great connection speed. | Our VPN offers high-quality servers with at least 1Gbps port connected.
