You're right - it's the lines. Poor 56k dialups would indicate DACS line
splitting (ie. getting 2 subsciber lines from one exchange point). Ring your
telco and ask them outright if your line has had DACS fitted, and what steps
they'll take to remove it. You want plain old copper all the way from your
residence to the exhange.
