What speed can I expect?

[link to this post]

I'm currently on a fixed 1Mb connection with Zen & am thinking about moving to a different package. Can anyone estimate what up & down speeds I might expect with the following stats, or point to a calculator:

Downstream :
Noise Margin : 19.5 dB
Attenuation : 59.5 dB
Output Power : 18
Upstream :
Noise Margin : 11.5 dB
Attenuation : 31.5 dB
Output Power : 9

Downstream :
FEC : 0
CRC : 624
HEC : 291
Upstream :
FEC : 0
CRC : 1
HEC : 0

My distance to the exchange is estimated at 3.4km.

about 1M downstream, maybe 2 if the SNR margin is stable around 6 dB.

Yarwell: The calculator at www.farina1.com/adsl suggests 3mbps. Are you suggesting the calculator is seriously over optimistic?

I am in a similar position on 1mbps fixed with attn 51 and SNR 21. I am also considering an upgrade to a 2mbps fixed service but would only want to do it if the connection remains stable.
