Cant really give you any advice really, except to make sure the speedtests you're using are reliable, dont be taking the readings straight off soeedtest websites or streams.
have you tried downloading from a big server, maybe download a game off virginmedia.com (you get alot of them free on XL broadband) or download a copy of intenet explorer 7 from microsofts website, see what your download speed is (kbps) and x by 8, should give you a reliable reading.
On the plus side though, the 25ppmin will be abolished in 2month, so thats a little bit of a comfort, at least you're not paying for the privilege lol :-)
