Unstable Internet and Ping for several weeks

Had an issue with my nbn for months now where the ping increases to 200 and the speed slows down dramatically every night between 7-10pm which is the main time i try to use the internet. No issue with my devices as i am using ethernet plugged directly into the modem and the internet is obviously being capped at a low speed between these times as it is consistenly dropping between 7-10 pm i go from my usual speed of 47mbps to less than 5 and my ping goes from 20ms to 200+ i have previously contacted the support team multiple times about this issue and they have ignored my messages and the last time i threatened to switch to telstra they finally responded and said they would be in contact although it has been almost 2 weeks now and still no contact and the issue has not been resolved. I have been told to switch to telstra from friends and family as they have not had the same issue with their service and at this point i have been paying internet for 2 months and having to use my mobile data instead as the internet has constant issues. If this does not get resolved soon I will be looking into other internet providers as I am not at all happy with the service currently and it is a waste of money when it is advertised as high speed nbn and it is slower at night than my previous cheaper adsl was.
