Right on the little monitors on the task bar and click status. If you have bubble help running just place cursor over it and it will pop up.

Answer 5

Phone up the provider - they will be able to tell you. If it is slow you can upgrade. You can also ask them to send a boost down the line to clear any gremlins if it is slow for no reason. I am with Virgin (used to be Telewest) and they do this while you wait.
