Thats funny I live in Aus and my internet suddenly got really slow..... But we recently ugraded from 200gb to 300gb.... :3 We haven't done anything different, we have 3 people in our house right now and when we had 5 people with 200gb (3 of which, me included, played games regularly) we nearly never capped our net, so I dunno whats up! I pinged google and got an average of 1369ms - 1578ms, and steam is going at 60kb/s when skype is open and I won't even tell you what happens when I have steam, skype youtube and overwolf opens, because it all crashes! I can usually have it all open with at least 700kb/s on steam, decent skype connection, 720p videos not having to stop to render and overwolf's fps at 40-60, what the hell?!?!?!?!

Please help, this is unbearable for me, I know it sounds stupid but there is literally nothing else to do, all my friends live miles away and gaming is my no. 1 hobby! Any help is appreciated!

Try power cycling (rebooting) the modem and router. Since you didn't give us much information, there's not much else to tell you.

Have you contacted your ISP?
