Hi all, I recently have been having some issues with my broadband. Every night at 9 PM my broadband speeds go from 9-11 Mb/s during the day and evening to 25 Kb/s. This has been happening consistently over the past few weeks. I don't understand what the problem is as my broadband stays fast during peak hours in the evening only dropping at 9 PM. I do not think that the problem is with my PC as i am using a wired Ethernet connection and the slow problems effect all the computers in my house. I have also tried the usual unplugging it and plugging it back in but even that has failed. Any help in dealing with my problem would be greatly appreciated, thanks in advance for any answers.
 
I think you should run a benchmark (like speedtest.net, for instance) using the exact same setup before and after 9 pm and then question the ISP (if you have a contract with an ISP directly). If you have access via some landlord-setup routing, you need to ask the owner of the network about setup.
Either way, providing some cold-fact figures is better than just asking a generic question.
