How long have you had the service? When my parents first got theirs
set up a full years ago it actually took a good 4-5 days for it to
"optimize" itself. I'm not really sure what exactly the CO was doing
with the connection, but it made a noticeable difference just sitting
and waiting.
That said, my cable modems have always felt faster.
