🛡️ Security: Security measures, such as firewalls or antivirus software, can sometimes slow down your internet connection by filtering data packets and increasing latency.

According to Cisco, global internet traffic increased by 48% in 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

🌐 Traffic: Heavy internet traffic, such as during peak usage times or during major events, can cause network congestion and slow down your internet connection. For example, a user in New York accessing a server in Australia may experience latency of up to 200ms. Additionally, the geographical distance between your device and the website or app's server can cause latency and affect performance. 📡 Distance: If you're too far from your WiFi router or access point, your signal strength may be weak, causing slow internet speeds and buffering. Other factors that can cause networking bottlenecks include: 🔍 Networking bottlenecks can occur due to a variety of reasons, such as cross-globe latencies, slow upload links, or network congestion. 🚀🌐 Do you have a fast internet connection but still experience slow websites or apps? The issue might not be with your internet speed, but with networking bottlenecks.
