I can also show you quite a few posts in here from people who switched to a VPN because of ISP throttlling.
That does occur.

Slow Download Speed Megathread

This. I’ve seen some mentions of routes in this thread. In this day and age, there are not routers on the Internet backbone that are not well equipped to route traffic, or without sufficient bandwidth. If VPN improves download speeds, then either your own SOHO router is performing some form of QoS where this kind of traffic is deprioritized, or your ISP is. When you introduce a VPN, the ISP is no longer able to ascertain that your MSFS traffic should be low priority. That will probably end up,…

How much network bandwidth is needed for MSFS 2020?

I used to only get 2-3 mbps in game until I discovered my ISP was screwin me. A few phone calls and holding a cable tech hostage for 20 hours uncovered they we’re throttling the connection.

On a side note, windows does not like certain versions of the Intel Ethernet Card, and the win driver can cause…

Please Fix Photogrammetry and/or LOD

I see, there is a problem between you and the server in that case. Some people have had better results using a vpn when it turned out their isp was throttling the bandwidth while using FS2020.

The screenshots look good because the game has ample time to catch up and ‘complete the scene’ while I’m getting the drone in place. In motion I see a lot of …

Very slow download speed

Update: Wow, I can fly tonight! So the initial attempt to download the latest 50 some GB update was getting almost to 4% complete after starting almost 24 hours ago. But in the last two hours, since switching to a VPN connection, I was able to get the entire update and make it to the main menu. Finally. Hypothesis: ISP (Cox Communications cable) is throttling downloads to the specific CDN providing these updates.

And these are just a few.
