Hi Conor,
has a tool that shows the location of your exchange and adsl2 coverage on a google map. -Hope that helps
remember that is only line of sight not the cable route it maybe a bit longer

frenet.net is a good site but i don't where to find my cable loss information
You would be better using a GPS and calculating the route from your exchange to your house. Cables generally follow roads , not a straight line so it should be a more accurate answer.
best way is to go into your modem info page and check your attenuation on up and down links.
something like this:
Attenuation (dB): 31.5 14.8
Output Power (dBm): -51.2 12.8
Attainable Rate (Kbps): 19992 1104
post the readings here...

if you go here: and enter your phone number in the 'broadband choice' section it will give you a list of providers who service your area.
looking at your figures, you should get maximum sync speed on adsl1 or 2+
just checked his setup on Fremnet and this is what i got ??
attenuation (dB) = 16
Cable Loss (dB/km) – Default 13.81
Attainable Rate (ADSL1) – kbit/s 8000
Attainable Rate (ADSL2) – kbit/s 21707
Distance to exchange (Meters) 1159
