Poor mbps every night
Every night when I try to connect my Roku I have 0 mbps connection. And most days if I have 1 mpbs I am lucky. I am sick and tired of this crap internet..but again have no choice because of where ...
Yikes. That's so frustrating, and since you get better speeds at other times, it sounds like it's just a whole bunch of people jumping on your beam at the same time and all wanting to stream something, thus overloading the system very rapidly. Not sure anything can be done about that.... :(
I did reboot! Up to 12 mbps now! But around 5 pm..it goes back down to 0 :(

Gotta agree. It sounds like significant congestion, especially since the speed is halfway decent during the off peak hours.
Activities that are especially sensitive to higher latencies, like the various forms of streaming, seem to be the most affected by speed drops, even when the overall speed should still be high enough to perform the activity.
