Help with a long line issue

[pilgrimkenna]

But I really don't think you're going to go any faster, though ADSL2+ would be worth a try if it's available

Gutted

cheers for your help though guys much appreciated

Sometimes, the best advice we can give is 'move home'.

For your connection, the acceptable range of speeds is 100-500 Kbps.
Additional Information:
Your DSL Connection Rate :512 Kbps(DOWN-STREAM), 448 Kbps(UP-STREAM)
IP Profile for your line is - 350 Kbps

2. Upstream Test:  -provides background information.

Upload Speed
356 Kbps
   
0 Kbps   448 Kbps

We were unable to identify any performance problem with your service at this time.
It is possible that any problem you are currently, or had previously experienced may have been caused by traffic congestion on the Internet or by the server you were accessing responding slowly.
If you continue to encounter a problem with a specific server, please contact the administrator of that server in the first instance.

It slow and stable,although we've seen in the last couple of years small companies taking an interest in rural broadband,in one instance the whole community got together and employed a company to install a fibre system.
