I've been having some horrible speeds lately, page loads are slow as crap. Anyone else having this problem?

Now that you mention it, yeah. Connection speeds have been laggy all day. The house's main switch is quiet, so it's not the other guys in the house.

Quick test. I know that pear Networks has a crazy amount of bandwidth. I tried to do this with Purdue, but I was getting around 5-7kBps.
Code:
$ wget ftp://ftp.pair.lkams.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v2.6/linux-2.6.8.1.tar.gz
ftp://ftp.pair.lkams.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v2.6/linux-2.6.8.1.tar.gz
           => `linux-2.6.8.1.tar.gz'
Connecting to ftp.pair.lkams.kernel.org:21... connected!

28kB/sec a second isn't so hot. The service package I've got right now allows for up to 128kB/sec. I normally get a good chunk of that, but I guess not tonight.

Dammit, neighbors. Stop downloading crap.
