Your telephone connection might be bad. If you get too much RF interference that could be a possibility. Maybe at the source of the connection they may be having problems.
Also, you need to run a virus check. Data miner virus will slow it down, clogging the memory up.
You may need more memory. When I first got my computer, I only had 256 and it gradually got slow. Put in a 1 Gb good as new now.

It's limewire thats causing your broadband connection slow. Get rid of limewire and start again and your connection will speed up.

Check your WAN activity. This happens to me every now and then. Going to certain sites will trigger all sorts of incoming network packets. What I wind up doing is restarting my modem and internet connection in order to obtain a new IP address.
Your router should have logs you can check to see if this is indeed happening.

chk EMI ( electromagnetic interference ) on your modem ( modem should be 3ft away from any electronic device, not on carpeted surface, not near to any lamp or not near to any cordless phone ) // chk on these
try turning off your modem for 20 secs...
if these wont work call ISP tech support
