    The internet also hit July's peak for HTTP traffic on 7/29 (possibly due in part to more people opting in to the Win10 upgrade). Unfortunately, they've revamped that page and we can't actually pull up the historical data to see just what those numbers were, but you can track internet traffic elsewhere and see it has been on a steady increase, like the IPV6 traffic here or the Cisco data and projections they published a few months back.

    The problem is that North America's infrastructure has not been beefed up well enough to prepare for the traffic boom, and we see issues nearly every time there is a big spike in general (like major sports or other entertainment events, important election cycles (like right now, with debates starting and all the people streaming/commenting on them), major game releases and/or operating system releases--remember, Win10 just hit the wire on the 22nd).

    The point is, there has been a LOT going on over the internet...straining a system that was already buckling under the traffic as is. Need to look at just what is going on with your sessions...you may find signs of problems in route to the servers.
