I'm not sure if anyone else has noticed, but lately my service with FairPoint has been having a lot of problems. This has been a common occurrence once every few months usually lasting a few weeks at most.
Basically the service is fine during the day, but severely degrades between 6PM-8PM and lasts until 6AM-8AM the next day.
By degrades I mean a massive increase in ping/latency as well as a drop in overall download/upload speeds.
Pings to sites like Google.com being 15-20ms during the day end up being 500ms+. My 15/5 "FAST" fiber optic connection goes from 15/5 to 1.5/0.5 and there is severe packet loss making me unable to do anything during the time when I am most active (evening, late night, very early morning).
Anyone else getting this lately?
