Considering this is on a powerline adapter and there's a few things running off the mains at the minute, I don't think this is too bad, but I'm meant to be getting about 30 down, soon to be 60 down when virgin media finally decide to do the upgrade here.

The problem in the UK BT owns most of the broadband network and they never want to spend money on it.
