Re: 50MB Only Getting 25MB
From your pathping, I believe you're in an ex-Telewest area which means you have a private run to the street cab. This is also confirmed by the engineer telling you you're on the top block in the frame (lowest attenuation). I don't know enough about ex-telewest but I think that means there are no amplifiers in the street between you and the cabinet.

If there's a cabinet round the corner, nearer, VM prolly have the wayleave to dig the road/pavement up and connect you in if there is a spare port on the frame.

Otherwise I reckon they're gonna have to do some nifty work to raise the RxMER by 3 dB at least.

You can forget about the further tests I suggested.
