Has anyone used Mullvad to access gambling websites nowadays? I feel like my speed has gone down significantly in the last few days or so even though I've changed servers many times. Not sure if this is exclusive to gambling websites or not since I can't reproduce it consistently, which is a bit weird considering nothing changed on my end. My ISP also shows no signs of problems, although I'm not confident with their stats at all.
I understand that some casinos may set the connection speed to slow down in cases where the client is accessing via a VPN. But to slow down the VPN, of course, the sites responding to you can use other methods, for example, slowing down or completely denying access to both your communication service provider and the input filters of the site itself where you want to enter. So the reason can be varied.
By the way, I would like to read in this topic about real cases of users of gambling sites and online casinos when they had difficulties using a VPN. Especially, of course, if this somehow significantly influenced the most important issue for any player about withdrawing the money they have won to their wallet.
All VPNs are going to somewhat slow the speed of your connection to any site because that is how the system works and it requires firstly a greater amount of data transfer from point to point and it requires the computing effort of deciphering the encrypted point to point messaging.
Sites have to have the right resources to accept VPN traffic and somehow understand this is more expensive and has to make business sense.
