| 1431334 | 2017-01-29 21:48:00 | I have noticed that over the last few months my ufb internet is really slow at night. (especially for overseas sites) During the day the speeds are great, but after 8pm it is deadly slow. Are you finding this or is it just me? |

| 1431335 | 2017-01-29 21:55:00 | Mine slows later in the night as well. About 6pm it starts, this is generally when people are getting home from work and everyone's on the internet, but nothing to noticeable in speed drop. Only really time I notice is if I run a speed test. But some Overseas sites do take a little longer (couple of seconds) to load as the night wears on. |

Buffering on video sites? Slow download speeds? Gaming latency? Or just general browsing. I've not noticed anything (Spark UFB 100/20). I've changed APs to enterprise grade rather than the supplied one, my download speeds seem about the same....but I tend to not watch them, and haven't noticed any buffering issues on any sights (lightbox, netflix, hayu, youtube, channel 4 uk). With faster and faster speeds and more people on ufb, it wouldnt surprise me if it was slower. |
