"Call it throttling, call it whatever you want. It makes my general internet better"
Not mine. Sure Bloomberg, Wikipedia & other top-tier payers' windows open fast, but I find most "not popular" sites hang and drag on opening new tabs/windows... long enough for me to open a Bloomberg tab/window to "prime the pump", so to speak. Tethering to a laptop, I can watch local library or .gov window attempting to load with no in/out network traffic for 15-20 seconds. Everytime I open Bloomberg or Google, multiple previously loading tabs/windows recommence instantaneously.
- epistasis 11y agoHow does that relate to the conversation? Who are you using for internet, and what type of weird setup is it where they deliver packets after "priming the pump"? That is not a throttling scheme, nor anything like BingeOn.
- tunap 11y ago"Priming the pump" is an expreasion[1]. I am matching your favorable experience on T-MOBILE with my differing experience. The discussion is pertaining to Tmobile's throttling traffic, when non-prioritized traffic fails I have found opening a prioritized connection resumes the former, as well.
