Are hardware issues ruled out already?

For example, you could try to use scp or rsync (which uses ssh by
default, just as X2Go) to transfer a sufficiently large file back and
forth and see if the line/cable-modem performs according to specs.

I've seen wonky hardware act up once the upstream was actually maxed out
(no issues during casual surfing, pinging etc. - only when a higher load
towards the upstream router was present).

Hint: If you test using the particular client and server that you want
to use for the X2Go connection, you'll see a more realistic result than
by running some obscure speed test on a web site.
