Not real sure about the freezing up thing, but I recently had a problem with very slow download speeds...my upload speed was normal. (I ran a speed test with www.dslreports.com). Anyway..it ended up it was my DSL modem. Swapped it with another and all is well now. Not really sure that will fix your problem, but just thought I'd offer my solution.
