That is what you need to do with the field tech onsite and a higher level repair tech on the phone at the same time (techs have a "bat phone" number they can call into to get a tech ASAP usually). Have him bring a new modem and repeat the hardwired test with that as well.

Ask him for numbers relating to Margins (signal strength - higher numbers are better) and Attenuation (noise on line - lower numbers are better). Also, have them go to your slot and port on the DSLAM and plug in his laptop direct from there and speed test. Hell... feel free to PM me with a date and time and bridge me onto the phone and I'll talk to the techs.
