HOME-CONNECT - POOR EVENING SPEEDS

I have a 100mbps fiber line through Home-Connect (Infrastructure through Balwin Fiber) however every evening from 6pm for the past 4 days my line speed declines to 10mbps or less and becomes very unstable rendering the use of any internet services such as streaming or gaming useless. In the mornings the line speed returns to 100mbps. I have submitted tickets on the online portal and contacted the call center multiple times with no success/assistance. I am seriously considering changing ISPs to Cool Ideas.

I must have at least 4 tickets logged with Balwin but not one response as yet. Don't see how this is a Balwin issue when I am getting full speed throughout the day and only slow downs in the evenings. Sounds to me like shaping/throttling by the ISP.
