The speed of your internet is dependant on the service you are receiving from your service provider. You could have the best technology in the world. If you are running on DSL, you will only get the fastest speed that DSL can give you - which you may already be getting.

Some service providers will only work with specific modems as well, so first you would have to check what is compatible with your provider. Second, as Juice mentioned, high speed modems are typically capable of much more than what your service provider allows you for speeds. The only exception is if you have an older modem(more than 4 or 5 years old), it's possible that the modem can't keep up with your internet speed.
