25mbs service but slow speeds - Middle Village, NY

Click for full size
I've tried to get a hold of RCN customer support but the only time I can call is at night and they're always usually experiencing high volume calls. I've waited a hour and a half today and just gave up since it's already 1030pm.

So basically I'm subscribed to the 25down/2up package and the down speed is inconsistent throughout the day for the past week (See image for speed).

Is there a problem that we don't know about within the area since I read that other zip codes are having odd speeds? It's kind of hard to stream videos or even play some games online with this type of service.

JB I'm hoping you actually get fixed. Load balancing was stuck on a per modem basis and not based on utilization. It should balance people out better this evening.

I got home around 5pm and ran a few test and it just dropped back down to 5.5Mbps again which will probably be the max throughout the rest of the day.

Here's some more test. I logged onto my DD-WRT router and followed the span of this test through the bandwidth monitor. Jumpy results =/
