Are File Hosters slow for anyone else?

[Anti-Ultimate]

So, today i wanted to download a firmware for the Galaxy s2 and it downloaded at 10kb/s...
Logging into the Playstation Network today took like 1 Minute (Normally it takes around 12 Seconds)
Speedtest shows normal speed, even though my connection constantly jumps from 2.50mbps to 3.50mbps however the Modem shows it's connected at 3.50mbps...
Pings to us sites are like 200ms...

What the hell is wrong with my internet?

I was getting some very slow DL speeds about a week ago, and my DLs would randomly stop. But I have Comcast, and they've never been good, so I figured it was just a problem with my ISP. My speeds seem fine right now.

Another Fact: More and more people of our village want DSL.
The lines are there, the hardware too...

Just the Fiber cables the Gateway is connected to can't transmit more speed
However, the Outdoor DSLAM are coming...

Well, Megaupload's 50 million daily users just switched to all the other file hosters I guess

I got a mobile broadband from Swedish Telia. Both speed and signal varies all the time.
It's sufficient for most basic tasks but not huge file downloading, the biggest files that's fairly OK usually varies between 100-300MB, it's all from PS3 firmware updates to the latest NVIDIA or ATi drivers.
It has a tendency to disconnect a lot too, 2G, then 3G for quickly turning to 2G, then 3G again.

But I guess way out on the countryside that's pretty normal, theres a lot of woods here.

My ISP is also slow this past few days for some strange reason MTN nigeria could do 2mbps before but for some odd reason i'm having trouble going over 500kbps and i'm in the bloody capital
