At the time of writing, we don&#8217;t have any data from individual broadband ISPs or mobile operators, but LINX is normally a good indicator of major trends in traffic flow.<\/p>\n<p>LINX handles a key chunk of UK and global data traffic through their switches via around 1,000 members (ISPs, mobile operators etc.) and they only recently peaked at 7.2Tbps last week, which was on the back of the <strong>Call of Duty: Warzone 2.0<\/strong> release. But it&#8217;s also fairly traditional for major sporting events, such as the World Cup, to set new traffic records, and so it has come to pass again.<\/p>\n<p>However, LINX does not provide a complete overview of the internet traffic flow from all ISPs, but they do give a useful indication of how much extra traffic is flowing around when compared with normal conditions.
