I can manage 19mb sync on a SNR of 1.5.
The line coming into my house is not that good. It enters a junction box where 1 wires shoots off somewhere under the floor and I cant see it and another 2 wires leave the first junction box to another junction box. From there one wire leads to a socket that does not even have a test socket.
Would it be worth getting BT to put a new line and master socket with a test socket in?
Here is my stats
Modulation: G.992.5 Annex A
Bandwidth (Up/Down) [kbps/kbps]: 1,304 / 18,273
Data Transferred (Sent/Received) [MB/GB]: 93.57 / 1.07
Output Power (Up/Down) [dBm]: 12.0 / 17.5
Line Attenuation (Up/Down) [dB]: 6.5 / 18.0
SN Margin (Up/Down) [dB]: 7.5 / 5.0

I think you are been a bit **** taking to be blunt, 18.2mbit is a incredibly good synch and I have rarely seen higher, its so rare its the reason why a few isps are marketing adsl2+ as upto 16mbit as thats a more realistic max good lines will see. Also for the sake of 1mbit on top of 18mbit which you will rarely see on tcp throughput its even more of an argument to not bother.
Better justification is for people with "actual" bad lines with synchs below 8mbit and stability problems.

Considering I cant get BT to admit a fault with a dodgy 4meg synch I would be amazed if he could do that on a 18mbit synch, BT should charge him so they can spend time on bigger problems.
