Are you aware of noise in the slope of the signal between the high end and low end ?
Adding this simulator/attenuator/equaliser will reduce the slope and reduce the noise thus (in theory) better service
If its the same speed try using your own programmes. If there slow it's your comp
in regards to jb66 points it is a waste of tech's time but it could well be delaying tactics by VM. It costs money to send out techs but i am assuming its cheaper to send out a tech than to do upgrades to fix congestion. Maybe some speed issues are caused by power levels, but I dont think many are. I have tried my connection from about -10 all the way up to +11 on power and it made zilch affect on my speeds, it just affected T3 timeouts and modem drops.
