Hello, are you on WiFi or are you on a hard-wired connection when experiencing slow speeds? Are you gaming, streaming content, or surfing the web when this happens? I am including additional information on ways to achieve Gigablast speeds, and also understanding speed test results:

At this time, your modem levels appear to be within the normal specifications. As far as why this is occurring only at night, there are variety of factors beyond Cox’s control that can affect the actual speeds. Please make sure all connections are tightly secured and free of damage. This includes any splitters, amplifiers, or boosters you may have in the home. -Kevin M. Cox Support Forum Moderator

Hard wired, it would happen even when connected directly to the modem. It was a very cold night and literally the speed went back to normal and signals improved as the sun came up. I went from 80Mb to 800Mb with no action. It has happened several times. I've had water at the termination point at the pole. Could be the same. It's definitely not on my side.
