You need to share a bit more information than that..
Are you on wireless? Have you recently had any new roommates move in? Do you have rommates at all? Are people downloading torrents? Did you do any tracerts to determine the bottleneck? Did you install any software recently? etc..

Welcome to Team Fotress 2

Your ISP probably rerouted your traffic through a cheaper 3rd party connection. Mine does that all the time.

and btw i thought maybe some of the prob is because theres like 3 cell phones and 3 laptops working on my network but im the only pc so i should get the most connection

Think of the internet connection to your house/flat/mansion/sewer as a pipe. Every connection takes up some room in the pipe. Three skaters rolling around a pipe would bash into each if they didn’t slow down so they have to slow right down to all fit down the same pipe.

The more connections in use at the same time on one pipe the less ‘bandwidth’ you have and the slower your connection will go.
