Do they have capacity to the right places?
The evening traffic peak is usually streaming entertainment bits from CDNs
on the edge of the network.
Work From Home seems to be VPNs going between residential to business
ISPs interconnections and lots of videoconferencing services (zoom, webex,
etc).
I'm not an insider anymore, so I don't see what ISP capacity planners see
on their dashboards.
