Thanks for the update, Danny89. There are times when heavy traffic demands will slow down your browsing performance but our network engineers are continually assessing service performance metrics and adjusting parameters to accommodate the increasing demand for internet bandwidth.

As of now, my speeds are normal, that started at 6AM
My state code was either FAP Condition or Fully Operational, the whole time. Its been 0.0.0 Fully Operational since 2AM, even when I was unable to load a webpage, and if I attempted to download my game from Steam, it would hold at less than 20KBs(At 6AM when it came back to normal speeds, it went up to 900kbs and even peaked at 2.5MBs!)
I'll post the speeds from TestMy if the problem starts again. Hopefully it won't, but it did this yesterday where in the morning it suddenly fixed itself..and then by night it was extremely slow to the point of not being usable, which is what makes me think theres some other issue. Oh, and I checked further devices, and they all reported the extremely slow speeds during the...slow time
Im having flashbacks to when i was on dial up
Edit: Getting some baseline from TestMy if needed!
Let's hope it was a transitory thing, but getting some baseline speed tests would be a good idea, and then running tests if the issue comes back. Hopefully it won't, at least during the weekend.
