That's nice and quick (the upstream). It's not BT's standard maxdsl for sure.

So what's your distance from the exchange ? 3km or so ?

Nothing 'wrong' with those numbers for sure.

I've got a similar downstream attenutation, but a slightly better
noise margin (generally speaking) - I usually connect at ~6200kbps to
7000kbps (the lower being much more reliable / stable overall)
