Speed Drops the regains and restart ?
I have had the T-Mobile trash can for about a year and my speeds have always been kind of slow like 30 -60 down and 7-9 up, now that’s fine for me but noticed this past week the speeds have changed ....
Regarding the https://whatismyipaddress.com/ page. You can go there in a browser tab and it will report your IPv4 and IPv6 address pretty much after the page renders. If you leave the page up and you see the behavior change where things slow down just go to the page and reload the page. If the IP address reported has changed well, maybe that is a clue. Then do the router reboot and after the reboot go back to the page and see what the IP address is after the reboot. It will most likely be the same, I would think, but it is something you can check. The problem might be congestion due to buffer bloat and the reboot sort of resets things clearing out buffers. An IP address change may have no bearing on the behavior.
If you were to check the IP address and see a pattern that emerges then you might have something.
