Last night I tested my ADSL speed with speedtest.net, and it barely reached 1Mbps. I rebooted my modem just in case, and then it almost reached 3Mpbs.
What you really want to know is the sync rates of your connection; then speed test after that. The sync rates may be lower due to interference from the FTTN and any phones lines that the FTTN box doesn't control. In time, there will be no ADSL going back to the exchange, only VDSL going to the FTTN boxes (unless or until they are upgraded again). When it is all FTTN for your area, they are expected to increase the voltage on the lines, which will improve VDSL connections and speeds; in the meantime they need to keep the voltages lower so as to lessen interference with existing ADSL services. Your best speed tests cannot be better than the sync speeds, but rebooting the modem /may/ get better sync speeds, however it may drop back if it can't maintain that level of service.
