    Why is my internet so slow all of a sudden?

    Yesterday my internet crashed and I was bored the entire day.

    I went to bed early because I had nothing to do, and when I woke up my internet was on again!

    I was so thrilled until I found out that my download speeds had been reduced by more then half their normal capacity. My upload has also suffered.

    Here is a test from moments ago:




    Here is a test from two days ago:




    So I ask you...Why does god hate me?

    WHY WOULD THEY DO SUCH A THING?

    NEWS FROM THE FRONT LINES!

    My download and upload speeds have increased dramatically in the last few minutes, however they are still not as good as they have previously been.

    Perhaps there is nothing to fear.

    Perhaps god does not hate me.

    I didn't notice this problem until now, but today my speeds have gone from 4000 to 7000 to 19000 back to 14000 and just all over the place...

    Hopefully it fixes itself soon!

    I've also noticed that while I am doing the speed test, my download or upload will actually decrease during the test at times.

    I didn't have this problem before.

    I am really disappointed.
