Exactly. Maybe someone's stealing your connection and you have no idea it's occuring? Have you checked your router's MAC address memory to see if anyone's hopped on who shouldn't be there? What level of encryption are you using?

QoS is a way to throttle some network services from eating a disproportionate amount of bandwidth, especially if VOIP or videochat services are being used.
