In order to resolve this issue, you may want to try a VPN.
This is why many of you find that services such as Netflix or YouTube seem to require buffering a little more at 8:00PM rather than any other time. This is common during times of heavy internet usage in general as your ISP is trying to reduce speeds to services they find to be less than essential or they simply want to charge specific services more money to get faster speeds on their network. If you know you’re supposed to get a certain download speed and you’ve tried changing Steam download server regions, ran multiple tests from which has confirmed your download speed, but Steam is still downloading at a speed that’s significantly slower than expected, it could be because your ISP is throttling your connection. For example, if you’re on the West Coast of the US and it’s 10:00PM, it may be worthwhile to try a server in the East Coast of the US as it’ll be 1:00AM in that area. However, when choosing an alternate server, it may be worthwhile to consider timezones or other factors. While Steam used to have a webpage which showed the amount of load on any server, the webpage is now updated to only show the amount of bandwidth used on a region, which isn’t helpful when trying to choose another server.
