Hi, I have fiber connection at my home with download speed of 150mbps but each day the speed drops from 9pm to 11pm to below 10mbps. I have contacted my internet provider and they are unable to find any problem with my connection and moreover my friends also use same Isp and they don't face such a problem and I also can't figure this out. Help me out

There are a a lot of possibilities here, your router could be overheating due to if you have more than just yourself using the Internet connection at home, causing speed reductions at night, or due to excess traffic in the evenings, your ISP may be purposely reducing speeds to attempt to reduce bandwidth. Finally, try to unplug your router in the evening when you experience slower speeds, and see if after the reboot the speeds increase again.
