    Hi Bustout,

    Have you tried to contact the ISP (BT) to confirm if they expect you to receive such a low speed in your area?

    It does seem very slow to me for your geographical location, perhaps there is an issue with your line which is making it worse - one for BT to advise on really.

    If BT say your speed is expected and the best you can get, then It's probably worth ringing around other providers to see if they would expect better results, or maybe explore the cable route.

    Would be interesting to see what the rest of the community think, as i am no expert in broadband to be honest

    Kind Regards

    Adam
