At the moment I have a 50 megs symmetrical unlimited internet plan, but no matter the device or connection method (5G, LAN) my download/upload speed never exceeds 5 megabytes even though the speed tests always show 50/50.

Is it possible that my ISP is limiting this speed per device so that a single device does not hold all the bandwidth?

And what does this have to do with piracy? Well, between downloading files at 5mbs vs 50mbs there is a lot of difference, especially a lot of torrents.

    Of you bought 50 megabytes you should get that. Often tho that isn’t the case. Use librespeed.org to figure out what you’re getting and if not call your ISP and tell them. That is mostly the speed for you whole house tho, so if someone else is on it it’ll be a bit slower.
