Need to take a break because my Internet is trash. Thanks to coronavirus?

So the last 2-3 days my internet had been cutting out about twice a day. Not too bad but it's annoying having to reset my modem. Before that it happened maybe once every week or two. Today, however, I've been disconnected 2 times just in the past hour. So, rather than risk getting increasing dc penalties, I guess I'm now just going to be taking a break from DBD.

I'm guessing it's because everybody is home due to the coronavirus and on the internet so it's ######### ######### up but Idk for sure.

Also my job completely took me off the schedule for the next 2 weeks so I'll be broke soon, too!

I know people have it worse right now, though, so I guess I just gotta put things into perspective

    same here, it's real fun when your internet screws up, you end up getting DCed then having to sit through penalty, real neat

    If only the ISP's actually improved infrastructure for the last 15 years instead of pocketing the money and providing sub-par service for exorbitant prices, we wouldn't be in this mess.

    Darn it.

    Same. It's easy to tell EVERYONE is online. A bit frustrating but what can we do? Stay safe

    its likely because everyone's staying at home and doing things like streaming a ton of content that's really stressing out the worn down and outdated infrastructure that so many companies have been able to abuse in monopolized areas.

    Same here in Germany. It's catastrophic for me the last days

    No difference here in Sweden but people don't care about corona they work. Like me I work in school and we have kids with corona so I will get it very soon I guess. Internet works like a charm though.
