My Verizon DSL modem is only 125 kb/s. Do I need a new one?

For about 5 years now, I've been using a modem from Verizon that only downloads 125 kb/s, and I've been seeing people are downloading for 800 kb/s or 1 mb/s, and I feel like I'm being cheated on what I'm paying for.

I've tried to get the FIOS to increase my internet speed, but since a tree hit my house about 2 years, I had to use something else for power. It's hard to explain, but I'm using the power from a box on the side of my house. It doesn't allow FIOS to be installed, and I can only use a DSL modem.

If anyone knows what I'm talking about in the last paragraph, which I don't :) Please help me in suggesting something that could work with faster internet speed.

This isn't my house, so I don't know how to explain it.
