I had bad speeds a couple of weeks ago, mailed Giganews and got an answer 10 minutes later that my ISP got a problem somewhere. It was fixed after 30 minutes or so.
Just mail them and ask, you never know what they know

You don't mention what ISP you're using; many cablecos like to 'play around' with squeezing throughput on port 119, in particular. Multiforce is right though, if you're getting your # of connects okay (10+ with GN, depending on your 'plan'), then I'd give them a shout, but cablecos are particularly bad on maintaining bandwidth, as the bits you're using are also being used for 'on-demand' video, ppv, and other more revenue generation 'services' than internet.
