Having ideas with Ma Bell

My ongoing battle to purchase the ATT product they sell at the current fair price. I either had to order TV, or I have to complain about my download speed.

Speaking of download speeds, I am getting 3 Mbps, and there in lies the problem, I have no complaints, and ATT has can't get an excuse to remove the 75 year old alley copper. How do I get 3.0 Mbts through the thing? I likely have a rat pissing on the exposed terminals as we speak, birds crap it all the time. I have had people hang clothes on the line, in the garage. I still goes through two rusty connectors.

The ATT optical fiber is about 20 feet just outside my basement access, where Comcast comes in. The old copper runs all across my sub floor, to unterminated connections. I am likely broadcast DSL to mars with that antenna. Something sinister, I know.
