Slow speeds during peak hours
So I have been seeing a lot of commercials for hughes net lately. 2 thoughts on these. 1, its a shame they are lying. 2, apparently my internet is ridicuously slow because I use it during peak hour...
"The speed of the tests look like they should be enough to stream, but looking at the individual test variance graphs show what appears to be congestion."
"As Gabe mentioned, to get a better understanding of where your speeds are averaging during non-peak hours, different test at different times of the day can help us determine if it's due to congestion or another underlying cause."
Are these answers not telling me I have slow speeds because of congestion during peak hours!?
Please explain to me how this works then!

Kinda simple really, this is congestion. Imagine the cars are bytes and you're one of them, everyone is slowed down. Only so much can flow through something with limited capacity.
