What modem are you using?
You'l need to post your line stats (noise margin and line attenuation) ,sync. Also run the bt speed test. http://speedtester.bt.com/ and post those results too. Then we can get an idea if its talktalk or something else. |

Try a speedtest or two on this site, it has a good reputation for being accurate, as you can choose a server, nearest to your location.

http://192.168.1.1 you should find you stats there. Didnt you do this when you set it up. There should be something there called (show statistics) or something similar.Also sync (DL and UP speed is needed). Do the speed test again and post the whole result (copy&paste) the whole result.

here is the speed test ive just done.
The speed test has completed on test server speedtester1.nat.bt.com for user ******** and you have downloaded a 1.7Mb file at a speed of  479 kilo bits per second (Kbps), your service bandwidth will have been quoted to you in kilo bits per second. Your IP address is **************your browser is reported as being Mozilla 5.0 and is running on Windows XP. BT would regard the speed ranges shown below as normal service: For 250kbps End Users speeds between 50 - 250kbps. For 500kbps End Users speeds between 100 - 500kbps. For 1000kbps End Users speeds between 200 - 1000kbps. For 2000kbps End Users speeds between 400 - 2000kbps |
