I'll do this now

Yes, you are connecting at half speed, but even so your throughput is extremely low.

3000?

Lousy sync is the problem.

Thanks, What's a sync?

Time to suggest the OP retest in the NTE test jack I suspect.

Speeds: 3776/448

These are connection or Sync speeds.

Down Sync should be about 7 Meg,

You don't have a 2 Meg line, but faster.

BTW: Your speedtest of 302 kb/s is in bits, not Bytes, isn't it?

Sync, (Sychronisation speed), the data rate shown in those stats. Also known as connection speed, and occasionally "line speed", but that last one is ambiguous as at least one ISP uses it for something else.

Have a read of my Ring/Bell wire and Miscellaneous nasties pages. There could be scope there for a doubling or more of your download speed.

Thanks guys, I'll take a look RobertoS.

These are the results of the test.

Download speedachieved during the test was - 2.71 Mbps
For your connection, the acceptable range of speeds is 0.6 Mbps-7.15 Mbps.
Additional Information:
Your DSL Connection Rate :3.3 Mbps(DOWN-STREAM), 0.45 Mbps(UP-STREAM)
IP Profile for your line is - 3 Mbps

Yes bits.
So the line is faster?

That 2.71Mbps is fine for the IP Profile. (Also read "Old BT Profile" on my website, as that's what you are on). The IP Profile is determined by your sync speed, and is correct.

The problem is that with your attenuation your sync speed should be at least double what it is, as XRaySpeX and myself said earlier. With luck, the ring wire and one or more other things in the pages I've given you will get you there.

The line is capable of faster speeds, 7 Meg, but is not currently achieving its potential.

The BT speedtest is much more in line with your Sync Speed than the Speedtest.net one.

Follow Roberto's advice and also plug router into test socket behind faceplate and then repeat Router Stats (just copy those 4 lines that Roberto selected, not an host it) and BT Speedtester.
