What were your average speeds before the lightning strike?
I think this is the most important factor of all. Modem's, DSL routers, switches, hubs, nic cards, even the cat five between them were all effected by that lightning strike.
How is everything cobbled together now? Do you you have a wire closet and wall jacks or really long ethernet_cables and huge holes in the walls?
Have you tested the speed from just a single workstation attached directly to your ISP's appliance/device? What were they?
I'd make a gentlemen's wager that lightning is culpable here. At minimum need to change or re terminate a stretch of cat 5.
over,
bear
