do you mean the initial connection speed? or the throughput that you are
getting?

what area?
have you called ihug about it?
when did it start?
are you wanting help with it? or just to rant?
what operating system?
what type of modem?
anything else connected to the line?
using extension cables?

Yes, I tried unsuccessfully to connect at 10.10 a.m. and then, after
finally getting through, it took about three minutes before the
nz.politics page on Google Groups downloaded.

I just gave up in disgust.
However, this evening (it's 9:15 now) it's okay.

Your other option is to just MOVE.
You could be in for surpise at the good service some ISPs offer.
