Abstract

Embodiments of the present invention provide a method, computer program product, and a computer system for dynamically adjusting bandwidth based on location. At least one computing device, utilizing a network bandwidth, associated with a user is registered at a first location. The location of the at least one computing device is tracked by detecting whether the at least one computing device is at the first location. Upon detecting a change in location, it is determined whether a change in the amount of the network bandwidth is required, based, at least in part on, a set of rules and a current location of the at least one computing device. If a change in the amount of network bandwidth is required, a request is made to the internet provider to adjust the current amount of network bandwidth to the at least one computing device.
