Why not try Freeola - SR's internet service, they even give you the chance to try them out before signing up.
40k's not bad for a 56k, I used to get about 44,000bps, that (usually) gave stable pings on HL and Tribes2. Most other games were unplayable for me, but those two seem to have pretty good net engines.
That was with NTL. They were pretty good for most of the time, but they have quite possibly some of the worst customer service I've ever seen.
The best advice I could give would be to make sure you've got a decent modem, external ones that plug into a com port are generally better quality. Avoid USB ones at all costs, and avoid AOL likewise.
