Bandwidth saturation occurs when the inbound/outbound traffic exceeds what is actually available to you. A couple of possible solutions to this can be either using less bandwidth (ex. not streaming Netflix while downloading a large file) or purchasing more bandwidth from your ISP (if possible). You can learn more about diagnosing/understanding bandwidth saturation in the following articles. Diagnosing Bandwidth Saturation Bandwidth Saturation If this leaves you with any questions let me know! Thanks, -TJ
