    When I tried free Proton I could get up to 600Mbps.

    It should be noted for everyone else that this is very likely bullshit, and even if it’s not, your speeds depend entirely upon how full the server is and won’t be that fast most of the time. Proton’s free tier is known for being absolute garbage most of the time, bordering on unusable.

      Tested with SANET (Slovak academic network).

      It’s an old result, tried with exit IP 89.187.164.251.

      I tried to search it up, it is shown in one list of ProtonVPN addresses on Google, but the GitHub site gives 404.

      Edit: Wireguard, I should add.
