Hi @nadstek

Welcome to the Community!

Are you connected via WiFi or Wired connection? If via WiFi, are you using the 2.4GHz or 5GHz band network?

What troubleshooting have you performed aside from rebooting the modem/router?

it doesn't matter either way wifi or cable the drop to 2.4 MB from 300MB occurs on regular basis. as soon as I reboot modem and power back it goes to normal sometimes then open any browser and a youtube, run speed test it drops to around 16MB few seconds later as low as 0.4 MB ive seen.

Tried everything didn't help
