I think you are right in thinking you have hit a plateau. The reason is that you have being doing the same routine, the same rep range and the same weight for however long now. Muscles really do respond to different stimuli and to bust out of the plateau I would suggest doing a completely different work out for 6-12 weeks and in the future ensure that the routines are changed whenever you are not noticing improvement. You know the benefits of oly lifting, maybe hit the compound lifts (5 x 5) 2 warm up sets, 3 work sets each. 3 times a week.
Remember the (very loose) definition of insanity? doing eactly the same thing expecting a different outcome.... Keep it fresh!!!!
