Will downgrading my dsl package to 1mb help out with my connection issues?

My internet has been going out multiple times a day for months now. Numerous techs have come out and messed around in the central office making adjustments. Here are my line stats. I'm about fed up. Will lowering from 1.5 to the 1.0 package help with my line attenuation value? Its crazy high!

 

Transceiver Information Down Stream Path Up Stream Path DSL Speed (Kbits/Sec) 1788 447 Margin (dB) 6.4 22.1 Line Attenuation (dB) 60.5 31.6 Transmit Power (dBm) 17.1 12.4

It won't lower the losses, but it probably will increase the link margins, which should make for a more reliable connection.
