Title: Do home internet providers throttle bandwidth for miners? Post by: ludlow47359 on November 29, 2017, 12:59:11 AM I'm preparing to set up 2 S9's in my basement/work studio.
I recall hearing that internet providers often choke the service of people using a lot of bandwidth. Have you heard of "hobbyist" miners getting flagged as running servers or otherwise having their internet being interfered with by local ISPs?

Running 2 S9 miners is definitely not something you'd be throttled for.

The problem is different, I have not yet observed a decrease in bandwidth. My provider is very stable and truthful.I recall hearing that internet providers often choke the service of people using a lot of bandwidth.
