You should be getting more than 7.5 Meg Sync Speed.

With your present 5.4 Meg Sync, speedtests should show about 4.5 Meg. It is impossible to get 11 Meg speedtests for at least the last 20 hours,

These are far too low! There's something amiss with your line.

EDIT: Pointless seeking fastest ISP while you are not even getting the best out of your line now.

Doubt it! Your line is about 3.2 Km long or equivalent to this of terribly bad quality and maybe aluminium instead of copper.

Yh but I'm also scheduled to get fttp not fttc.

So what?

I don't think the cabinet down the toad is in use at all. Ive never seen anyone do any work on it whatsoever

My exchane is 0.6 miles away

As XRaySpeX says, there is still something very poor about your connection speed for that attenuation. (Has your speed improved though, since removing the ring wires?)

Does everything that connects to the phone line go through a filter, or have you got something that is connected direct to a phone socket, or possibly you are using a plug-in extension cable somewhere in the house?

A common suspect is one or more Sky boxes.
