Large Evening Speed Slowdown

Go to solution

Hi everyone,

I just wanted to pick your brains as I've had good help from here before  🙂

Since about 2 days ago I'm seeing a large slowdown from mid afternoon to all evening in my speeds.
Had solid 66-68 Mbps speeds for years, and now get 30-40 Mbps in the morning and 6-8 Mbps at night.

I've reported it and had a new Hub sent, which arrived today, but has made no difference.
I have an engineer coming on 28th December, but the timed nature of the slowdowns make me think it's exchange congestion, is there any way of finding this out for sure ?

Thanks for any help.

If your connection (sync) speed remains constant but your download speed drops, there is a distinct possibility it is due to congestion.

Hi @Ian 

I've dropped you a private message asking for some more information, so we can investigate these speeds in the evening for you.

Thanks

Stuart
