Hello.
Have someone that is getting great speeds on a T-Mobile reseller but are being terribly throttled with video. Ookla speed test in the fourties or more.
Fast.com is like 1.5 down. That is a speed test for video.
Does anyone know how to fix this?

Re: Video Throttling
So far the only way I have been able to stream with this service is by using a fire stick and adding a VPN app called X-VPN. Totally free VPN. Know I could add a VPN to the router itself but don't want all the data going thru the VPN.
Any ideas out there?
Another way to get this done?

Re: Video Throttling
So far seems like allot of effort to get this done without a HD streaming included. Ended up ordering a T-Mobile post pay plan. T-Mobile are the only ones I know of that offer a unlimited HD streaming.
Got the 55+ plan for people over the age of 55. Get one line of 55+ magenta for $50 then add the magenta "plus up data" add on for the HD streaming an extra $15. So $65 flat with taxes and everything.

Re: Video Throttling
Video throttling can be bypassed on virtually all carriers without having to sign up for any add-ons or using slow VPN's. The solution is using a simple cheap (or even free) proxy, which can be set to run the video stream only. Here are the details on how to do it:

The solution I have posted is for Chrome in Windows. If you can set up the proxy in the router, then it should work with all connected devices.
