Default My Internet problem that won't go away and getting worse

For several days I've been experiencing very bad network speed.

Funny thing there seems to be a pattern.
My internet would have great speed from around 4.30AM to 10AM. Outside those times the network is becoming almost unusable with regard to broadband performance. Today I coudln't even load youtube videos. No not streaming smoothly not even loading them up in the first place.

Speed test would show a mere 120-140kbps testing from London(while in the 4.30AM-10AM time period speed testing from London would give me 900-960kbps).
Even testing locally with a Server in my city of residence(Jakarta) would give me only 75% of what I'm supposed to be getting and I should be getting 1Mbps.

I'm smelling that they throttle down(capping) my speed what else could it be. My other friends are not having big issue with his internet while he lives and works less than a kilometer away from me and subscribing to the same ISP.

I remember when I had a chat with a particular Singapore based dissident. He was complaining about very very bad internet speed even when he's using public computer such as the public library computer. It makes me wonder foul play. And to judge with experience it would not be a surprise indeed.

And I am a Singapore dissident though luckily I'm not residing in the island(it was partly my decision too to refuse to go back and very grateful for that decision and I never forget to thank God for that fact)


I'm writing here just to let my resentment out.

Called the customer service as usual as I did yesterday at least to let them know I'm pissed.
