Gen 5 Unusably Slow Every Evening

No, I do not have a solution yet. From 3pm-after midnight, my connection is unusable: under 0.5Mbps. I performed the tests per your instructions (and more). 
 
Here is my test data again. The testmy url is below the data in this email. Thank you for your help!

Test Environment:
HT2000w: wifi SSIDs disabled - 2GHz disabled, 5GHz disabled, 1 laptop directly connected to HT2000w by ethernet cable
Laptop: Windows10, Chrome browser
Weather: clear
Location: 14505 Stetson Road Los Gatos, CA 95033 - about 20 miles south of San Jose/SiliconValley.

Several "share your results" url's are surfacing in the testmy.net ui so I'm not sure which one of these is right.
