Network throttling
I know SMARTY says they do not network but could THREE be doing this? I have been using a data dongle and I was getting 200 MB plus speed. This has now dropped to 20 MB. I have another identical device on the same network on the same windowsill and got the 200 MB plus. I am a network engineer so I decided to do a test of swapping and spoofing the MAC address (this is the machines unique identifier) between the two devices Machine A becomes machine B and machine B becomes machine A. et cetera. But the physical device stays the same. I also did tests where the Sims are swapped as well. It is clear from the results that the device (the MAC address that had a quite high data throughput 100Gb in 3 weeks) was immediately dropped to 20 MB and the other unused device was out over 200 MB. I then swapped it again for a new MAC address for a third device that I have and both devices went up to 200MB. This clearly demonstrates to me that throttling does occur and what SMARTY are saying is untrue. I have an MSc in digital forensics and have been a network IT Manager for over 20 years so would love to speak to someone from their legal team to say how this can possibly happen without throttling.
