I swear Comcast purposely tries to piss me off. - IWrath - Jun 16, 2017

Mon-Early Fri AM
Internet so bad it's rough even buffering YT with all the drops.

Fri Afternoon-Early Mon AM
Internet so fast it's almost impossible to use the download available.

Like what the fuck is this shit?

Well the first problem is that you are using comcast.

No other option here, the other biggies haven't bothered setting up shop in these parts and Comcast bought out the little regional companies years back so that every single person here has to use them.

Are you on a wired connection or on wifi?

WiFi and I've done every possible thing I can do to test it on my end, it ain't me.
It's almost like they're throttling speeds during the week and uncapping during the weekend.

Try wired, a wired connection will always have a more stable and better connection.
Even if you live in the middle of fuck nowhere there will always be signals interfering

I have, wired's only slightly better when it comes to me wanting to stream something. It still gets these drops where the D/L will literally be 0.

You do know they legally now can throttle your internet connection and make yoou and a website pay more to speed up the connections. You're pretty much fucked.
