What is ISP throttling, and how does Prosec VPN help?

Modified on Tue, 22 Jul, 2025 at 3:22 AM

ISP throttling is when your internet provider intentionally slows down your internet speed for specific services like video streaming, gaming, or downloads—often without telling you.

Prosec VPN prevents throttling by:

  • Hiding your activity: Your ISP can’t tell what services or apps you’re using.

  • Masking your data type: They can’t detect if you're streaming, downloading, or gaming.

  • Maintaining consistent speed: Since your traffic is encrypted, you’re less likely to be targeted for speed reduction.

If you experience slow speeds on certain apps or times of day, Prosec VPN may help bypass those limitations.
