Internet is acting weird

Sup folks,

I was downloading some games on Steam when I noticed that my internet was acting up. No idea why.

What's wrong? Look at the image and see for yourself. The download starts off strong with 4,5+MB/s, then gradually grinds to a complete halt. then after a while, wham! 4,5MB/s again, and you know the rest of the story.

Anyone know why my internet is so unstable? Any solutions?

 

Thanks in advance,

Regards,

TJ

Ah, I see. I don't know why, does your internet connection act this way with other devices?

No, it's with all devices

Either the modem or the router is being overworked.  Overheating might be a issue.  What is your ISP, the service you pay for, and the equipment you're using?

Please spend as much time writing your question, as you want me to spend responding to it.  Take some time, and explain your issue, please!
