18.5 attn is about 1.4km line length. My attn is 18 and I sync at 19600 kbps which shows Sky do cap the service at 16mb
18.5 can be easily applied to 700metres, dont over rely on atten for calculating distance if his copper is poor quality ie. thin gauge or even aluminium then the attenuation vs distance is much higher.

By your figures my 2.96km line should be abour 37-40 attenuation and is actually 49 attenuation.
