If you're in Manchester, England and are getting those speeds you're not in bad shape.  But you can improve your connection to the United States by tweaking a few settings.

Look into Van Buren's Cablenut Settings
And also Speedguide's TCP Optimizer

You basically have to tell your computer to send the data a little differently to maximize performance over distance.

And remember network overhaul can be a suspect too.. you can only download as fast as someone can upload to you and vice versa.. It's been times Testmy.net has stated my download speeds were 9.95mb at time and today im at 25.57mb, as long as its consistent enough for you..
