If you're getting the bad uploads on your network, doesn't sound like an isp problem. Definitely try the speed tweaks. Look for a program called TweakXP, I believe it comes w/ 50 free tweaks, there's some network/internet stuff on it. Also, could be a cabling problem (doubtful though if download is fine). You may check the settings on the Linksys router to make sure the upload bandwidth isn't somehow capped at 15 kbps.
