Dunno the 21M sync / 18M throughput mine does seems far from crap so dread what you think of 10Mbit that your ISP offers as its' maximum, let alone the 2Mbit you have (which I might add 75%+ of people in the UK could get on their lines).

To answer the original question in a non-'It's not cable so it's rubbish' way I'm not aware of anything or any reason to. The values given are a compromise between speed and stability. Offering 24Mbit is a bit misleading as even if you sync up at a full 24M you won't actually see 24M of throughput, close to 21-22.
