To get full speed, the router has to be connected and switched on for a period of at least 4 days. The router should always be connected to the master socket. Then if PC not in the same room, connect with ethernet cable from the router to the PC. Also, other interference can cause the speed to slow, BT now do a thing called an iPlate, (which has a full patent) which speeded my broadband from 2.2 Mb to and average of 5.5 Mb, but is takes about a week to get up to speed.
A Neighbour has AOL and its taken me and him about 4 months to sort his broadband out. Rehashed all the wiring and still problems, in the end threatened to leave as ther customer service is rubbish, they sent a new router and everything is now OK. Funnily did a speed test on this AOL line and it came up as Carphone Warehouse, bit of piggy backing going on.
