Problem
Why is the internet so slow in the afternoon?

Solution
Network traffic. Since the internet is a global network, the speed is effected by the total number of users worldwide. Generally, more people are on in the afternoons because of time differences between here and the pacific time zone where most network traffic is generated. When traffic is high, certain sites will appear to be down. In reality, you just cannot get there because of traffic. This degradation of speed is normal and should not be considered a local problem.
