PING from my dynamic ip disabled?

None of the mods from this thread are currently online, so just posting this here instead of PM'ing.

 

I was at Uni today and using Secure CoPy (scp) via iTerm2 to try and copy across some mp3s from a NAS on my home network.  It was going unusually slowly.  So I had a look at smoke ping, and there it was.  Latency was over 1 second.  So I ssh'ed onto a linux server on my network where my tracerouting script lives and trace routed to all desitnations.  You can take a look for yourself here: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1CDzRYSF7QVLJ7yzxfzAsWefSLaWZbm9L?usp=sharing

 

One thing I noticed was that the trouble seems to have begun suddenly and dead on 3pm (see screen shot below), which makes me think it was a scheduled maint in the TPG network where no advisory was posted.  Can anyone confirm this to be the case?  Does TPG not post network advisories for all of its maints?

 

Best Regards
