Q: Internet recently? WTF?

Is it me or is the net especially slow recently?
 

 

Is it the mine thing?

Mine is pure horror. I am keep thinking, 'it's only mine, but at previous place wasn't any better.

 

There was DDOS attack in USA 10-days ago, so they might exchange hits toward each other. Who knows ...

Sorry, was thumbing you up when my hand slipped.

mine definitely comes and goes...   I get a lot of disconnects with the alert-   Wi-Fi: Looking for network

 

MacBook Air  - maybe 3 years old but software & OS kept updated.  cleaned from rubbish files pretty regularly.

 

Honestly I don't know whether to blame the Mac, the router, or provider.

Mine has never been good, or as advertised. My dowmload speed was 2M, and was lousy, normally around 900K. Thinking it would solve it, changed to a faster download, and a waste of time.
Then good me a download meter that allows me to monitor download speed constantly. And this is what I have found. Pleasde remember I am supposed to have 10 M at all times.
In mornings and afternoons, I have about 3 M. Around 6 pm drops damn low, anywhere from o KPS to about 200 KPS, and continues like that until 10 to 11 pm. Then slowly builds up again.
Now, I do not claim to be a computer expert to tell you why this is happening. But to me, it is a lack of hardware and an excess of customers, combined that the [providers do not give a hut about their clients, because all do the same.

icnif77:

I am not an expert either, but I spotted the same as you without meter. Just by observing 'loading' on me puter. 'Timely' the same as you're saying.

I'd say, it is busy time for Internet in China, i.e. 'everybody are either free of work or aren't sleeping' and using Internet, so speed decreases, because of too many users and opposite.
