Internet speed unstable since Jan 24th

Why is my internet speed down to 1.8 mbps for the past two days? Started Saturday night. I'm supposed to be at 50 mbps, but since Saturday, service slows to a crawl or just stops. Any idea why? Is anyone else experiencing this?

Are you testing wired directly to the modem? Also, what kind of modem do you have?

I have had the same issue.  I am getting 7Mbps when I should be getting 150.  Ithink did increase some today, but I am still not at 150.

I'm running a Motorola Surfboard SBG6580 wirelessly. I haven't plugged-in directly, because I haven't noticed any lack of service until Saturday. Really not sure why.

Plugging it in wired would be the first step. There all kinds of things that can mess with wireless speeds, from other networks, to RF interference. Once you have isolated it to a issue with wireless, then we can look at your settings.
