I have been having really slow internet and I have tried rebooting my computer and gateway(Uverse). I have taken many speed tests and ping tests(normal ping with no packet loss and low jitter). The speed tests start out fast then gradually slow down and then plummet to ~1mbps. Does anyone have any advice on how to fix this problem?

Win 7(latest updates)
Chrome(latest updates) and have tried firefox and ie
Toshiba Sattelite P875-S7200(google for specs though problem happens on all my computers(which I have all disconnected from the internet))

There isn't a thing such as "normal ping" and who is your ISP?

I meant the ping is average for my connection. My ISP is AT&T(Uverse max plus).

It's your ISP,you can't expect good speeds but they certainly shouldn't be that low,call your ISP if they don't fix it switch or if you want a good connection switch to a fibre optic provider or US equivalent
