I'll let you know how the uncapping affects our connection tomorrow.

Most posts have concentrated on your upload speed which should get sorted.
However you said your connection was dropping too - is that still happening?

This was mainly over the past few days. My router was connected but I had no internet, or a very slow connection, even after rebooting the router multiple times and leaving it off for 30mins, etc.
The connection dropping was mainly when I was playing online on my PS4. I've forwarded all the ports and have a wired connection but it was still dropping out of games. Hopefully the upload uncapping helps hold the connection a little better.

If uncapping the upload affects the frequency of the connection dropping the only possible way it could affect it would be to make it worse.

Just a follow up post to say the upcapping seems to have improved the upload as expected! Thanks Smiley
We'll see if this helps!
