I think this last comment is very true indeed.

I purchased something called an i-plate here in the UK. I'd seen many 
feedbacks about how it had improved broadband performance. It is a 
basically a small plugin device for the BT master socket that contains a 
decent filter and a terminator for the bell-wire. They cost around £10 
and take only a minute to fit.

Here's what happened when I plugged it in:

And performance has even improved slightly more since that post too.
