All day long my connection is about 25 Mbps. Then, shortly after visiting Poal, it drops to 1-3 Mbps. It will stay dropped the rest of the day, or take several hours to go back up. It has dropped several times in the past, but I didn't notice it too much. It usually rebounds. But now I'm starting to notice a pattern. Today, I got throttled so hard I couldn't even stream a 480p video. Anybody else have this happen to them?
I have xfinity and it's the only ISP available in my area besides AT&T which is double the cost.
For the record, my internet connection is usually pretty good. I hardly ever suffer the problems other people complain about: slow speeds, loss of connection. In two years, I've only lost connection twice. Even during peak hours I don't lose much speed and I always pay my bill on time. It's been happening a lot lately and the only difference I can tell is it seems to be triggered by visiting Poal.
