Experiencing slowdowns or connection drops on Verizon Fios Fiber (AS701 • GPON / Ethernet ONT) during 19:00–23:00 EST?

Why Verizon Fios Fiber (AS701) Suffers From CGNAT & P2P Bandwidth Throttling

On Verizon Fios Fiber (GPON / Ethernet ONT), residential and mobile gateways frequently encounter Congested transit peering to AWS/Cloudflare and evening streaming bitrate drops between 19:00–23:00 EST. Standard unencrypted TCP/UDP flows expose plaintext Server Name Indication (SNI) headers, destination ASNs, and packet timing signatures that automated network queues classify and deprioritize.

Furthermore, using a default 1500-byte or uncalibrated VPN tunnel on Verizon Fios Fiber triggers IP packet fragmentation unless your WireGuard interface is pinned to MTU = 1420.

How SWEEPR VPN Solves This on Verizon Fios Fiber

Direct 10Gbps LINX & AMS-IX Peering: Instead of traversing congested retail transit links on AS701, SWEEPR VPN routes your encrypted UDP stream directly to our 10Gbps RAM-only bare-metal nodes in UK-LON-01 (4ms), NL-AMS-01 (8ms), DE-FRA-01 (11ms), and SE-STO-01 (14ms).
Auto-Calibrated 1420 Byte MTU: SWEEPR VPN automatically detects GPON / Ethernet ONT path overhead and clamps your WireGuard tunnel to MTU = 1420 with PersistentKeepalive = 25.
In-Tunnel Zero-Log DNS (10.66.0.1): Bypasses Verizon Fios Fiber transparent DNS proxies and NXDOMAIN interception completely.
Free 30-Second Home Wi-Fi Device Scanner: Instantly audits every phone, laptop, IoT plug, and Smart TV connected to your Verizon Fios Fiber router subnet.
