same as my mum.

You might be better of trying to get adsl2 ie. upto 20mb from sky. That might give you better speed.

If you phone them they cn test your line and tell you what speed you can get.

I have just signed back up to sky and its only £10 a month for adsl2 20mb if you take their phone line :)
