I'm only getting like 80kb/sec download speed at the moment :(
Obviously, I want to boost this .. but what are the best ways?
Currently using an ASDL modem from Sky (wireless optional)
Wouldn't mind going wireless if I could get a decent USB dongle (links !)

Suggestions? :/

i take it that you do not reach the speed you are paying for?
it can either be an insufficient modem (very unlikely) or you should call your ISP to let them check the connection. if you are far away from their hub you might simply not be able to get a better connection (using the same cable/technology). in that case you have to change technology/ISP.
unfortunately there is nothing a client can do about his internet speed (if the modem is intact).
I had a similar problem and had to keep my router close as possible to the BT main phone socket and keep your cables as short as possible if possible.
Hope it helps :)

The ping difference as well as packet loss were much better on my sky connection, too. I have to reboot my router rather often (before playing) to ensure I don't get packet loss.
I get a higher download speed (1.7MB/s constant) than I did with my previous suppliers which was around 800KB/s!
DNS is terrible which is why I use OpenDNS and their routers are so bloody restrictive and useless for wireless :{
