Yeah, from looking around, seems it must still be the Sky LLU service, as the upstream is still a nice full 768kbps.
I disconnected the ring wire yesterday.... instant improvement. I now get the same stats as if it was connected to the test socket.

Did some speedtests at DSLZone...got a very nice 6meg, even with Alison downloading stuff at the same time.
From having a look around ThinkBroadband (formerly ADSLGuide) & Skyuser.co.uk, it seems like Sky have a policy of capping people's speeds dependant on line quality, with some people also being put on G.DMT (?) rather than ADSL2+.
It's apparently possible to get Sky to uncap your speed, & put you on ADSL2+, if you talk to "Tier3" tech support & they think your stats are good enough for it.
