When a VPN is Recommended: Bypassing ISP Throttling
Many major American Internet Service Providers (ISPs) actively monitor heavy streaming protocols during peak evening hours (8 PM – 11 PM) and artificially throttle video bandwidth. If you notice speed drops during live matches despite paying for gigabit internet, connecting to a nearby VPN server with the WireGuard protocol encrypts your data packets, preventing ISP throttling and restoring full streaming speeds.
