    Your SNR could be improved but with that line attenuation 4-5mb is all you could expect with line attenuation of 42 on adsl1. I don't know if the alarm could be interfering with your snr. Have you tried plugging out all filters in the house and plugging the router straight into the main socket? Do your stats improve?

    Try downloading a couple of large files with a download manager like Flashget.

    Pretty much all the speed tests I have run suggest maximum DL speeds of about 5000- 6000kbps.

    Flashget on the other hand is downloading files at well over the 7600kbps I've been upgraded to (sometimes it tips the 8500 mark).

    That is 5.4mb so you are getting decent speeds for those line stats.
