Join the club, same here I reckon! As per my recent posts on here. Plusnet say there is nothing wrong with my line after testing it, they must of been testing at the wrong times. I have told them as much.
Time BT/Openreach sorted their network out.
Mine as of now.

Hi Inam,
I'm sorry to hear you're experiencing speed issues. I've had a look and this doesn't seem right at all. Can you please follow our troubleshooter and raise a fault so that our Faults team can investigate further for you? You can do this here: http://www.plus.net/support/broadband/bbfaults/

Thanks for the reply Linn, I don't think there is any issue with the line it self. I believe this is congestion issue as this only happens in the evevings. I get full speed during the day and after midnight.

I think leaving BT infinity was a big mistake just to save some pennies, I was getting full speed no matter what time of day for 18 months with BT infinity.

Doesn't Plusnet fibre use the same infrastructure as BT Infinity? So the congestion would be the same. Still reckon it's my issue as well, thankfully as not as early as 3pm though.

Yep the infrastructure is the same, and we have plenty of capacity.
If you've got a Fault Ticket open we'll get the congestion issues looked at for you.

I have, #81892611, came back as no fault found speeds as they should be. I responded with a BTW second test image taken during a low period. Just had a reply back saying "further investigation".

Re: Congestion issues Burton on trent exchange?

Hi Inam,
I've looked into potential issues at your exchange and have noticed a few other lines performing the same as yours.
We've raised this with our suppliers proactive team and are awaiting an update from them.

Re: Congestion issues Burton on trent exchange?

Thanks Chris for looking into this, gaming and streaming has become pretty much impossible in the evenings due to this problem.
