Depending slightly on what method you use to connect to the exchange, will make the world of difference to ping and speed. If you're using copper telephone wires over any sort of significant distance then your ping will suffer and so will your speeds. If you have something like FTTC/H then you might have some sort of problem with your in-house wiring and/or router.

Also 5mb means 5Mbit, so with that you would expect download speeds of around 520Kbytes/sec. With .76mb upload (that means 760Kbit upload), which in turn means around 80Kbytes/sec.
