It's not normally something that does take time to increase although I have seen it happen in the past. Are you using a wired or wireless connection?

I have a wired connection and the modem and router are both right next to the connection point.

Wireless is likely to be your limiting factor, can you try a wired test?

Ah yes. That has improved it. It's still slightly slower than I thought I'd get but perfectly reasonable.
I've never had a connection fast enough to worry about the wireless being a limiting factor before! Though considering that my master socket is in a hard to access cupboard in the corner of the house, I should probably have thought to try this earlier. The wireless signal has to get through several doors and a wall or two. It does mean that I'm effectively limited to about 40 meg, by the sounds of things. Oh well. Still better than the 3.6 meg I was getting before.

As a further thought on this, is there any way round this problem that doesn't involve me stringing a lengthy ethernet cable through my house?
Would a different router improve matters? What about a wireless repeater? Something else I've not thought ot?

In my personal opinion wired connections are always the best way to go and guarantee you a good quality connection, you could use some cable management to disguise your cable or run it underneath your carpet (depending on the layout of your house).
If you do want to stick with wireless though a repeater is a good idea as I dont think your problem can be fixed just by getting a better router.
