With these stats is my line stable enough to get 10mb/s ADSL, and if so how do I go about getting Telkom to activate this. Thanks i advance for any help

You need to see if you exchange supports adsl 2+ first.
 
Your line should do 10Mbps or close to it but you're currently still connected to and old G.DMT DSLAM, which can only do a max of 8Mbps, Telkom will need to switch you to a ADSL2+ DSLAM to get 10Mbps

While the technical spec for g.dmt allows for 8Mb, Telkom only lets you go up to 6Mb using g.dmy in SA. If you want 8Mg you need adsl2+.

Anyway I'd try 8Mb first and see if it's stable.
