Supposed 2MB connection rather slow?

A question probably asked a 1000 times... I am supposed to be on a 2MB connection (Guildford area), and this is what I get with the speed test:
Fri, 21 Apr 2006 13:05:30 GMT

1st 512K took 7120 ms = 71.9 KB/sec, approx 592 Kbps, 0.58 Mbps
2nd 512K took 7190 ms = 71.2 KB/sec, approx 587 Kbps, 0.57 Mbps
3rd 512K took 8473 ms = 60.4 KB/sec, approx 498 Kbps, 0.49 Mbps
4th 512K took 5948 ms = 86.1 KB/sec, approx 709 Kbps, 0.69 Mbps

Overall Average Speed = approx 597 Kbps, 0.58 Mbps


I am connecting through a wireless router connected to the cable modem, downstream reads like this:
Downstream Status
Downstream Lock : Locked Downstream Frequency : 402750000 Hz Downstream Modulation : QAM64 Downstream Interleave Depth : 32 Downstream Receive Power Level : -5.6 dBmV Downstream SNR : 34.1 dB
Is this a case for CS?
Kind regards,
Oberon
