This is kind of a loopback scenario.  You're at home, connecting to
your dyndns account out there...which is connected back to your home.

This is pretty convoluted.  Many routers won't even allow this.  It's
not surprising you're getting poor performance.

Now, I wouldn't put it past Sympatico to implement traffic shaping that
slows down packets from SlimServer, thinking it's P2P traffic.  I
haven't heard confirmation that Sympatico does traffic shaping, but it
sounds like something they'd do.  ;-)  (I'm a Sympatico customer too.) 
I know Rogers uses traffic-shaping.

But still, the problem most likely is the loopback.  Do you have
another external location where you can test?  Work?  A Starbucks?  A
poorly-secured neighbour's wireless network?  ;-)
