@blacknight I think UPC are having issues these days, technician out today. I get access denied messages and have “signal strength issues”
@blacknight Sounds like they have over subscribed or something and it’s negatively affecting the network
I suspect there’s more to this than meets the eye…I also suspect it’s more to do with peering arrangements more than “average speed” as reported by Netflix?

Quite possibly, though Netflix is rating how their users experience connections, so it’s as good a barometer as any.

well afaik all the others peer directly with Netflix except UPC who peers somewhere “out there” meaning their apparent speeds to Netflix are crap.
But point taken from a users perspective it isn’t good at all and UPC should fix it by peering locally.
