 If you are using broadband

Probably is your ISP that giving your the problem. Since you are from Malaysia, where i heard the Streamyx is a bottleneck, maybe you have to call to them and ask for assistance.

Try to do a speedometer check whether is it 70% bandwidth given by your ISP from your internet package.

If you are using dial-up 

There are some extra tips to boost the dialup tips, i've used before when i was using dial-up 10 years ago. Still its proven to be effective.

Let me know here what type of connection you're using so that we can help further.

Which kind of connection you use? Do have any kind of home network? Are you using file sharing software?

Well, just because there are only two other people 'using' the network doesn't mean that all 11 other computers aren't turned on and running servers for dubious content. Meaning, some of your roomies could have left their computers on and serving up data to others. This would be my guess. Alternatively you may consider cable modems are drawing from the same 'pool' of bandwidth in your neighborhood. Meaning, the amount of traffic in your neighborhood/region will also effect your network speed.
