I hear you. I have about 3.5 Mb most of the time because I'm at the very outer limits of distance from the hub (for either Sonic or AT&T, whose infrastructure they use). But when I moved into this building, I spent 3 months trying to get Comcast U-verse working before they broke down and admitted that the building owner never accepted their offer to re-wire the building, so 27 units were trying to all get service from enough copper to serve maybe a 5-unit building or so. I dealt with AT&T's bullshit for a few years, but cut them off when I experienced the third mysterious, un-announced fee increase inside of a 12-month period.
Sucks because I can't really make effective use of Skype etc. most of the time, but it'll have to do for now.
