I have been observing for months that my net wont go past around 50kb while browsing the web and apps and games are barely usable with speed bearly evomegle er corssing 20kb sometimes and wont run any onlinr games throughout the day but somehow im able to watch youtube all day without any buffering. Trying to download anything on chrome just shows the download speed to be below 20kb sometimes while i can watch 480p videos on yt without any problem. I am forced to play games and download stuff around 1 am-7am due to lesser network traffic. Anyone havr any idea on why this is?

This is just a SPAM post identical to the first post where the it was edited to include the link.  This was posted today as a new thread and I merged it with a previous SPAM thread asking the same question.

 

The poster is saying any nonsense just to get the SPAM link on the forum. Just wait for the 'I got this' followed by the link.
