Michael,
If you have changed nothing and all of a sudden your connect speed
drops, I would suspect the phone line. As a test, connect a phone to
the line your modem uses. If you press any key on the phone pad and
hold it down that opens the phone line and allows you to listen to it.
You should hear absolutely nothing. If you hear static or other voices
that is an indication of a poor quality phone line. If so, contact your
phone company and complain.
