Upload speed decreased dramatically

I forgot to mention. I have to connect to a VPN to upload to YouTube right now. For whatever reason, a VPN in Texas is a lot faster at uploading, so it's not like Cox is throttling me or anything.

Right, that's what I said. I did that, and it works just fine, but in-network is literally the only place that works.

OK, so I basically have trouble with any site out of the cox nwork. This includes YouTube, Google Drive, various FTPs, Cox's own webmail, etc.

Here's a tracert of YouTube: 

I do manage to get great speeds with a Speedtest that goes to EasyTel:

However, when I do a tracert, it's all Cox servers all the way:

I'll post more comparisons in just a few.

Here's a Speed Test to a server in Texas hosted by Skybeam:

Here's the tracert to skybeam.com:

Cox's own webmail is slow. It took me over 2 minutes to attach a 16MB file. Here's a capture of my activity when uploading to it. It never went over 3mbps:

Here's a traceroute of webmail.west.cox.net:

Here's my testmy result at a little above 2mbps:

Here's my tracert: 

Just FYI, I've never had this issue before, I've tried 3 PCs. I've tried 2 modems, both with and without the router. My friends and family are not having this issue. Right now it takes me about 500-1000 minutes to upload a 2GB file to YouTube, whereas I'm used to 15-25 minutes. It's much faster over a VPN, but still takes over an hour. 

OK, I edited the posts to have all of the pics uploaded. Here's my speedof.me test:

And here's the trace:

I'm failing to break 3mbps with a large Google Drive upload:

Here is a trace of the IP I was using to upload:

If you have anything else you want me to test, let me know. This suddenly started either late Friday or early Saturday. Due to the variety of tests I've done, I really feel like this is somehow internal to Cox. Is there anyway to like...reset and reconfigure my account so I go through different routers and switches? 

Hi Chris,

Here are the results, including what I see on my end. Like I said, there's nothing wrong with Cox's Internet Speed Test at all. The problem does not appear to be talking to Cox, but somehow Cox sending my uploads to other parts of the internet.

Red is download, green is upload.

I guess I'm kind of stuck and out of ideas as to what to test next. Did anything change early Saturday? I'll run any tests I need to.

I've uploaded YouTube videos every day for years. Here is what it's like right now to upload a 2.78 GB file. It's been like this since early Saturday. I can't get it to go above 2mbps, and I'm averaging 1mbps.
