This is a problem to new users that haven't invested in steem. I have found that I get a lot more #bandwidth at certain times of the day.
I am Eastern Standard Time and have found that during the day is when the bandwidth is very low. Works great for me because I post at the optimal times of #steemit. Optimal time to post is 10 pm to 2 am which you will have a lot of bandwidth. You seem to get more activity at those times. It correlates with live streaming and youtube videos. It seems that we have more traffic at those times. Thank you for this great informative video. We all appreciate the hard work you do @brandonfrye
Thanks for that info @kbakadave, I would have never thought about that but it makes sense that at certain times you would have more bandwidth... depending on the traffic on Steemit.
