UDP is throttled to about 100 kbps on T-Mobile. Wireguard won't work and TCP based VPNs don't work either because the carrier injects TCP RST packets to all VPN-like connections.
- willis936 5y agoSounds like it's time to get a new ISP. "We won't let you use our network unless you let us look at the traffic" is a pretty clear message to me.

- orangepurple 5y agoI must clarify this because you're right. I checked with my buddy on T-Mobile that has a Wireguard VPN and it works fine. I think it has to be an MTU setting that needs to be changed. Or it could be a geographic block but I find this theory unlikely.
- chenxiaolong 5y agoIs this a regional (or plan-related) thing? I have no problem hitting 200Mbps to my wireguard server at home, though I'm on one of the old Simple Choice plans (with the Binge-On throttling disabled if that matters).
