Open Network Utility in the Utilities folder. Click on "Ping" and ping google or some site when the internet is slow. You will see response times that should be 200ms or faster. If it is greater or lost packets your ISP is in trouble. My cable modem dropped 60% of my packets once because my cable was bad. Slowed the internet to a crawl.
