Diagnose and fix slow proxy speeds, high latency, and bandwidth issues. Optimize your proxy setup for maximum performance.
10-50 Mbps typical
50-200 Mbps typical
50-150ms average
30% slower typical
Speeds significantly below expected rates (under 5 Mbps on 4G, under 20 Mbps on 5G).
First, test your internet speed without proxy:
If base speed is slow, the issue is your local connection, not the proxy.
Now test through the proxy:
Compare results. Proxy speed should be at least 50% of base speed.
Distance affects speed. Use servers closer to your target:
Use US proxy servers
Use EU proxy servers
Fastest speeds, best for large downloads
Good speeds, most common choice
Slower speeds, use only if needed for specific IP
