I have a TJet. I get just over 8Mbps most of the time. Admittedly that's not the full 10meg but it's good enough to stop me thinking about shelling out £50 to our money grabbing provider.

Is there any way of improving this or are we better off getting it downgraded to 4mb?
Thanks

Make sure to use Ethernet instead of USB.
Some firewalls can slow your speed. If you have Zone Alarm, a known badboy, then you must completely uninstall it. For others, try running with just the windows firewall and see if there's a difference.
For slow browsing, try changing your proxy.
