Low network utilization rate?

My internet connection has suddenly gotten really slow, as in slower than dialup. (I have DSL). Pages that used to take 0.5 seconds to load are now taking about 20-40 seconds, especially if they have media.

To all you who are going to ask, yes, I've restarted both my connection and my computer several times.

I've noticed that my network utilization rate is hovering between 0% and 0.04% when things are loading, would this explain it? (obviously, that's really low)
