I have been using my PC for several years getting pretty consistent speeds
(ranging from 49-53k).
Suddenly this week I am connecting at 28k.
What could be the problem?
I have a Windows XP Home edition with a Conexant HSF V.92 modem.

Could be quite a number of things, including the phone company changing something in the facilities that serve you - if that's the case, there's little you can do about it.

To isolate what it is - try another modem, or try your modem in another location; try your modem connected directly to the demarc, for starters
