Changing computer won't help. Have you been looking at the line sync speeds in the routers interface?
No
I'd take a look at this first, just to see what speed it is syncing with. If it's lower than what you were getting before there is a problem with the ADSL hardware, cables, phone line, exchange. (Although, disconnecting all ADSL gear from the line for more than 20 minutes /might/ help as it will force the BT gear to resync aiui).
Has the router got the latest firmware?
No I have not updated it-will do
Make sure you take a backup of the config before you upgrade and have a copy of the old firmware available in case the new makes it worse. It could be worth updating in case BT changed something in the exchange overnight that the old firmware doesn't like.
Other than that I can only suggest you see how it goes for a couple of days and see if it magically resolves itself or not.
