Oh, I think it's part of a generalized low-level hinkiness seen across
many large scale systems caused by so many folks working from home-
systems engineers, techies, etc.- with only skeleton crews on hand in
many central facilities.

It's a credit to all of them- and the underlying technology- that things
are working as well as they are.

I don't think it is the increase in usage of the internet. This started
before Christmas. We don't use the land line that much so has not been
much of a problem. However now that the virus started up and our
children do not visit that much now we are starting to use the land line
more and it is getting to be more of a problem than a slight annoiance.
