Comcast, the country’s largest Internet service provider, said it plans to implement a new policy in order to solve the problem of heavy traffic users. The new traffic management system is called Fair Share and its purpose is to limit the top internet speeds for targeted customers for short periods.
Mitch Bowling, Comcast’s senior vice president, said the new traffic management system will establish if the internet traffic is congested by users who “disproportionately” consume network resources. When it will identify the bandwidth hogs, Fair Share will delay their overall top speed for about 10 to 20 minutes to keep service to other users smooth.
