Are you behind a router?

Maybe a restore point to the day before.

Did you D/L something different in the last 24 hours?

I'm not on a router, and I am quite positive that I did not download anything in the past 24 hours.


I'll give the restore point a try...

My mistake, how far did you go back? I'd try a week if you didn't. One day sometimes does not catch it.

Shut everything down, unplug the router for an hour or so, then first start the modem, let it alone for 15-20 minutes, and restart your computer. Post your speed results. DSL can be strange like that.

 I would say yea, callem up. Let us know what they do.  Besides resetting your modem, and making sure that bridging in on, and testing the line.

They did say they were upgrading their "email service/software protection" I assume this is whats causing the lag?
