T-Mobile Home Internet throttling speeds to certain servers (10x reduction)

I just posted about a similar experience with suspected throttling earlier this week and this is definitely interesting. This morning right after rebooting the router, I'm getting 730 kbps down, but 15 Mbps upload, which does seem weird if it's a tower issue like customer service likes to read off their little script. At this point, I'm ready to look for another option because I can't work with speeds this terrible, but I'll have to give the VPN idea a try first to see if that helps.
