I'm in the Pensacola/Ensley area of NW Florida and since I've been awake today I've noticed a huge decrease in my download speeds. It's to the point where I'm regularly testing with download speeds of 2-10Mbps and always a solid 6-9 Mbps on the upload.
I have the highest plan available here, which is something like 50/4 but I usually get speeds in excess of 50Mbps on downloads.
I've run traceroutes, MTR, and speedtests from Cox and Speedtest.net.
Everything appears fine except for download speeds. No observable packet loss, though obviously I can't account for possible retransmits/errors on the cable/docsis side since Cox likes to completely lock you out from all that information in their modem firmwares (despite being a self-owned modem).

Signal levels also appear normal.
Anyone else in the area having problems tonight?
