Mullvad halves my internet speeds — is there a fix? (beehaw.org)

Typically, my ISP provides ~500mbps down, but Mullvad seems to struggle to get above 220mbps. Is this typical?

I want to route all network traffic through it on the router, but don't want to miss out on the download speeds I'm paying for.

Switch location in Mullvad. I often find that solves any issues I see (such as poor speed or too many captchas ...)
