 modem problem or isp? - spamcan61
I wonder if it's possible to get BT to measure the speed capability between your house and the exchange / DSLAM, if the line is capable of several Mb/s then an ISP should be able to provide a reasonable speed connection over that line. If your ISP won't do that because of deliberate or accidental bottlenecks upstream then sounds like it's time to move on.

I live fairly out in the sticks and get 4 - 5 MB/s so this seems typical for an old twisted pair line.
