I "upgraded" to a new web host recently and despite an increase in processor cores and RAM over my last one, my websites are running slower and not faster. When I check the system resources I notice a lower percentage of RAM being used now and CPU utilization
is about the same despite running Windows Server 2019 instead of 2016. Resources appear well within limits, but when I look at my resource monitor I notice that the bandwidth graphs are towards to top.
Since the problem is not due to insufficient CPU or RAM resources could this be due to a bandwidth throttle? If so, what can be done about that?

Hi,
Who is managing this server? Could ie the older server had multiple network cards and/or using a https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-server/networking/technologies/qos/qos-policy-manage ?
If the issue is really on the server side configuration it starts likely to be beyond this forum.
