Ar-r-r-gh!!!

Ugly mid-day spike in pings on my home circuit. Wonder what this is all about. (And if you're wondering, the computers at home are OFF.)

I can show you worse than that!

Disregard packet loss on Tuesday...I was disconnecting things. But look at repeated slowdown each afternoon.

Also...I was getting slow results from Speakeasy speed test about noon Pacific time today. I assumed it was a line problem, but all other speed tests gave normal results. SE test showed about a third of correct value.

Re: Ar-r-r-gh!!!

Here's a 10-day look at my home circuit. Notice that the weekend isn't affected by this mid-day spike in pings. Can I assume this is the result of a POP that's being stressed during the workday? It wasn't that long ago that Speakeasy had to deal with a serious issue of inadequate capacity here in NYC. Are we getting there again?
