This is helpful, will send to my coworker. He's been trying to fix a bug that only happens during low-bandwidth conditions. (It's actually really annoying, because my cell will show it has 5G service but the service isn't good enough for poorly coded video and audio sites.)

Hope it helps- every time I've tried low-bandwidth simulators to create realistic testing conditions it never "feels" like it actually does in the field. That was a part of my motivation to build this. Let me know if he has any issues with it!
