If you can disconnect your router and directly connect your modem to your PC. Do that and check the speed. If the speed is the same, then its your internet, if not, then its your router.

Goodluck!

O btw, if your ISP says you get around 10mbps or more but you're not getting it, it could be that your lines are dead or twirled, it may require line reconditioning. Other factors include environmental issues, like cold, heat and storms.
