| This maxrate: Max Rate: 6408 kbs 1028 kbs really isn't enough to upgrade. If AT&T did upgrade you, you most likely would suffer from periodic sync losses and/or high CRC error rates which would cut your throughputs to well below the ~5000 kbps a good line would have.
A successful upgrade needs a maxrate of better than 10% higher than the new speed. The greater the percentage the maxrate exceeds the new speed, the less the chances that you will be posting in Direct with problems. |

Try connecting the modem directly to the NID and post the statistics then. Perhaps improving your internal wiring would enable you to get the upgrade that you desire. |
