Do Proxy Addresses Speed Up Connection? Exploring the Impact on Internet Performance

Nah, proxies don’t really speed up your connection in most cases. They’re more for privacy or bypassing geo-restrictions. If anything, they add an extra hop, which can slow things down.

But yeah, if the proxy server is overloaded, it’ll definitely lag. I’ve had that happen a lot with free proxies. Paid ones are usually better, but still not a magic speed boost.

If you’re looking for faster internet, maybe look into a better ISP or optimize your router settings. Proxies aren’t the solution for speed imo.
