Is it true that a better modem/router can't improve sync speeds on shitty ADSL2+ connections?

I'm 53 dB syncing at 3424 Kbps downstream. Is there really nothing I can personally do to make this less terrible? Some people claim x modem/router increases sync speeds but fucking NO ONE has compiled proper tests and comparisons.

Your line speed is only going to get as fast as teh signal to your last mile.You can get any number of modems and they will all be the same if you have 3424 to your door

So a different, more modern modem cannot sync at a higher rate? Seeing as I'm only pulling ~360 KB/s any increase would be welcome to me. I was looking at the FRITZ!Box 7490, there are people online who say they saw notable increases with it but no one has any charted comparisons.
