You can't really fault comcast for your wireless not handling 16mbps, they are only responsible for the speed up to the ethernet cable coming out of the cable modem, upgrade to wireless-N and you should be able to obtain 16mbps easy.
I only get 12-14mbps on my wireless-G router but that's not cablevision's fault I get fairly close to 30/5 the majority of the time.
