I am also getting a similar problem ever since friday evening. My connection speed is normaly 54.0 mbps but when I load up Guild Wars and select my character the speed drops to 1.0 mbps causing major lag (25,000+ pings).
I am from the U.K, use the european servers, and have not downloaded anything before, after or during friday evening. I thought maybe it was one of my programs messing around with my connection but when I checked my other programs my connection was fine, no problem, I'm now thinking it is because of this new allience battle double faction event. I am very upset that my connection is messing up, as I would have loved to be allience battling and gaining my next title, I did enter allience battle but was met with a wall of lag. this problem has made Guild Wars almost impossible to play.
