It's because your line attenuation is pretty high. Your sync speed is actually not bad at all for that attenuation.

In the UK there are a few things you can try to improve line stats but I'm not familiar with american phone systems. Try google.

From your linestats it looks like you are getting what you should be. 41db attenuation is very high, that's what's holding your connection back. With 31-32db you'd be getting 16-17mbit
