OK, this is getting frustrating.

I have updated everything; browser, definitions, Windows updates, even made sure that my device drivers are up to date. I have optimized my system until it squeaks. I run a virus scan daily. I've uninstalled anything that might be trying to hog bandwidth. And still we're dealing with horrendously slow net speeds. I just tested on four sites. The average results?

Download: 1.3875 Mbps
Upload: 0.4675 Mbps

Compared with other AT&T customers in our area, that's terrible.

Had that problem myself - turned out the modem, even though it was still *working*, was slowly dieing. If I remember correctly, you have DSL, but could it be that something upstream has gone kerplut?
