Slow Speeds - new to Broadband

I've been on Newnet's Home Lite package for about 3 weeks now, and I'm disappointed with the speeds I've been getting. I was expecting to get 4 to 5 meg on an 8 meg connection

My Upstream speed is only about 460 kbps

Downstream is OK at 374 kbps

I'm using an OfficeConnect 11g Wireless Router (3CRWDR101A-75) wired.

Although meaningless to me, info from my Router says;

Noise Margin
21db Upstream
12db Downstream

Attenuation
47db Upstream
40db Downstream

Is there anything I should check at my end before I 'raise a ticket' with Newnet. Any other advice would be welcome

Oh, I'm about 1.8km from the exchange.

Forgot to say, 1 day during Training, I did get 4.5meg.

I think you mean upstream speed of 374 and downstream speed of 460kbps.

What does your router say your sync speed is?

Yes Nick, your right. Sorry.

Where do I find Sync Speed ?

The Menu for Status and Logs is;

Status
ADSL Status
ATM PVC Status
Routing Table
Logs

... or is it not in Status and Logs

Hellllp !!!!!!
