OMG. That might explain why the piece of shit dongle my work provided managed to bring my entire internet connection down for all the devices on it by downloading multi-gig OS update from Apple at a screaming 1.2MB/s (yes, one point two megabytes per second) over my symmetric gigabit internet connection. Somehow I couldn't ping google from my windows desktop connected via ethernet, or access the web via my phone or ipad via wifi. The router itself couldn't even ping anything. The weirdest thing was the update never so much as paused and it wasn't using even 3% of my bandwidth. I'm not network engineer enough to even guess how the fuck it did that. Once the update was done I just unplugged the Ethernet and used built in wifi cause I needed the HDMI/USB 3 ports on it. Zero problems thereafter. Internet was fine on every device. It was shaped just like the pieces of shit in this article.
