RPMs rising

This just started last night :
Whenever I get to like 30-45 mph my rpm will rise and it will not speed up at all.
Any ideas?
2001 ram 1500 4x4

Trans slipping? Clogged cat? Does the engine rev freely with no load?

Speed sensor. The signal isn't getting to your computer so it is in limp mode.
