Any possibility that malware is on a system and is using your connection? As soon as you start trying to use the network, it shuts down (ostensibly to avoid being detected). Then, when the network is idle again, it starts back up and begins consuming bandwidth. It could explain the slow connection.
I'd suggest a network monitor port and watch the network traffic overnight and see if anything shows up.
