It’s no secret that your ISP can throttle your speed by prioritizing other users when the usage is in peak demand. We have seen this subtly done by Econet, Telone and Netone but to really understand this concept take a look a closer look at StarLink, they openly do it and they actually explain the concept explicitly in the data plans. Well even WiFi connections also do this kind of thing, that’s why you see sometimes your internet speed is insanely fast but sometimes it’s very slow but on the same plan. This prioritization is often given to subscribers paying more but what if i tell you that you can get more speed out of your current internet plan and equipment by optimizing your setup.

While the story is still developing what does this mean for us users and what steps should we take to ensure that our data and accounts are safe and secure.
