    As you say, it is "up to 8mb". In my view very people actually receive the maximum. Often it is for good reason - distance from exchange being the prime reason.

    The second reason is your internal phone wiring.
    Try plugging your router into the test socket, behind the faceplate on your master phone socket, see if that improves things.
