One column per quarter hour. The value in each column represents the speed on the network link in the quarter-hour bucket. Buckets are expressed as 0-95 and are counted from midnight.

If a specific day of the week is chosen for download, the column names will reflect the day of week (e.g. mon_0, tue_0, wed_0). If an "Average Weekday" or "Average Weekend Day" is selected for download, the columns will be named wkdy_0...wkdy_95 and wknd_0...wknd_95 respectively. The average weekday values are averaged over Monday to Friday; the average weekend values are averaged over Saturday and Sunday.
