Why is internet so ssslllllooooowww?
I know why, but i don't know why. I've got pretty crappy modem; 2wire 2701hg-g from bell, 5 down 1 up. When my mom streams netflix, everything else in the house slows to a crawl. Can someone please explain (in technical terms) why this happens? and if upgrading to faster connection is only option...can a new router make a difference?

Thanks in advance!!!

Edit: Thanks for the answer James.

Edit: BTW, it is a modem/router combo.
