Hi, I've been having a problem for the past couple of weeks with my internet connection. Every night at about 6PM my speeds and quality of connection degrades greatly. I'm paying for 30mb/s down and 5up, however once this starts happening every night it changes to 4 down 5 up. Between 11-12 at night the speeds start to return to normal.
Netflix is the only thing NOT affected by this. Twitch and youtube will buffer a lot, however Netflix is able to stream HD video while speedtest and other speed test sites tell me i'm getting 4mb/s download.
I have a feeling this is TWC's way to deal with heavy traffic during "primetime" when most people are using the internet and streaming things such as netflix... This is bad for me however because it cause bad connections in games such as Battlefield 4 with my ping spiking up to 200 at times.
So what do you guys think about this? I'm going to be contacting TWC about this shortly but i wanted to see others' opinions on it first.
