What causes the speed to drop

When there is a dedicated server in New York, he marked the bandwidth as 1Gbps, he connects to another dedicated server in the intranet, which can take up all the 1Gbps uplink/downlink, when linking to the server in Los Angeles, he only has 900Mbps/500Mbps, when connecting to France, only 900Mbps/200Mbps, why there is almost nothing loss in uploading, and download loss is very big. I have tested it at different times, including peak and low hours, and there is no big difference.

  • This is probably the ISP applying QoS policies. Try doing a mtr and see what ISPs are included. From my personal experience, when traffic goes through a transit ISP instead of direct peering, chances are that the speed will be much lower.

    Latency, peering, congestion. The further you go, the more points of connectivity there are and further data has to travel.

  • Some monsters eating your bandwidth..
