I need help with my ADSL speed, customer service not helpful

This is my last attempt, no ones been able to tell me any advice even remotely helpful. I may just have to cancel my DSL service but here it goes.. I really hope someone will help me!

I reformatted my computer and did a fresh install of WindowsXP. I bought a speedtstream 5360 modem at rummage sale, and at another sale found a DSL filter.

I started my at&t yahoo! DSL service three weeks ago.
During setup, had no problems. I managed to get online but was only downloading at 39kb/sec, uploading at about the same speed.

There has been no increase in speed! I've never downloaded faster than 39-40kb/sec!

Here are my official test test results.
Download = 317.72 kbps
Upload = 317.61 kbps

Here are the advertised speeds I'M suppose to get:

Downstream Speed: Up to 1.5 Mbps
Upstream Speed: Up to 384 Kbps

If anyone knows what might be wrong or websites that will help me... I will be most appreciative. I've wasted hours of time with customer service already, they are complete morons.

There are a lot of factors that can affect your overall speed. First, take off the dsl filter if it is the single type. Try running a homerun directly to the jack that your modem is connected to.Do you have an alarm system? Are you aware of any static on your line or conditions in your home that could affect your speed/ bad phone or old answering machine?
