Uh.. I guess.
Here in the US I use Comcast, all I would have to do is call them up and ask for a larger internet package, then they configure my internet, and I have a larger bill.
I dunno what's big in the Netherlands, but I'm sure you can find a good provider with a google search.

This thread seems almost a trollish at first.
Internet speed is completely different from computer speed. Even an old 1995 piece of crap IBM can download at 3 MBPS if the internet is that fast.
Living in the netherlands IS a reason for you to have slow speed. Everyone else lives in the USA, and here we have comcast who provide cheap fiber optic cable internet with speeds around 3 MBPS (18 MbPS).
But, it could also be your individual home not getting a good signal. Do you use cable? Sometimes you need a cable signal amplifier, and it will improve your speed very much. Try calling your ISP and tell them your internet is slow and ask what they can do.
