Well if your PC next to the router gets full speed, then Virgin is right - the connection is fine.

However, only getting 80Mbps on Cat5? On a relatively short run? That doesn't sound right. Our office is Cat5e and everyone gets 1Gbit, some of the runs are near the 100M threshold as well.

I'm going to go out on a limb and say your cabling isn't the problem, not unless you have serious crosstalk somewhere.
