Did anyone else see a large bump on their graph around 7pm Monday evening?

Does anyone else see a spike on their graphs bang on every 8hrs? I can't think what is causing it if it is a specific device on my network and it's been happening for months. The only devices on my network that maybe doing something are Firesticks, PS5 or Samsung Tablet and Phone unless the Hub5 is causing it.

Re: Thinkbroadband graphs
 

I think a TiVo/V6 calling back can cause similar but these seem to exact.

Re: Thinkbroadband graphs
 

Are they exactly on the hour? Try rebooting your hub at an odd time, and see if that moves the pattern.

TiVo/V6 callbacks average every 6 hours, but are randomised to spread the load on the servers.

Re: Thinkbroadband graphs
 

Always bang on the hour and usually every 8hrs but once in a while it skips it, this has been happening for months so the Hub5 has been rebooted plenty of times.

The pattern is always 8am, 4pm, 12am.

I was away at Christmas and it still did it, so it has to be the Hub5, V6, Playstation 5 or Firesticks as these are the only devices connected and the PC is off.

It's not a problem I was just wondering if everyone else was getting it too.

Just unplugged the V6 to see what happens at midnight.

Re: Thinkbroadband graphs
 

It's not the V6 doing it so will try the Firesticks after work.

Re: Thinkbroadband graphs
 

Mystery solved it's my Firesticks doing it, I just hope it's not a dodgy app I've installed that I use to get TV and movies.

:shocked: You don't mean that app called "Completely illegal Pirated media - free for life with a credit card (shhh dont tell anyone)" Is causing you problems ?????

Damn it..... I love that app :D

No credit card needed here with the replacement app for CinemaHD. :D
