ADSL 2+ (NOT UK related) - Advice requested. (O/T)

I appreciate this may not be the correct forum, but the expertise lies here.
My second home in France has had ADSL2+ for over two years.  We have been with the same ISP the whole time.  When visiting at Easter, we noticed the following:

I find the interesting point here is:
                                Down            Up

Max(Kbps):                7936            1040
Rate (Kbps):              1216            320n
Two years ago we got 11Mb down and 1.5 Mb up.
Does anyone, with their excellent technical knoweldge, know what maybe causing the router to see G.DMT instead of ADSL2+?  I have tried turning off G.DMT and noticed that the router would not sync.
Any help greatfully received.  I can telnet to the router, but amazingly my ISP refuses to do the same as they are only skilled in the web interface.
Thanks in advance.
