Line status and profile

Hi,
I got connected yesterday and installation took a mere 10mins.
Unfortunately the engineer was not able to answer any of the questions and provide me details about my synch rate, profile etc.
How do I obtain that?
Regards,
Oli

Re: Line status and profile

Hi is your line LLU or "offnet" if it is a BT line then you can get your line rate or ip profile by running  a test here http://speedtest.btwholesale.com/, once th espeedtest has completed run the further diags otion. Be aware through your line will be in a 10 day training period so is likely to move around a bit until it gets it's optimal rate. The sync rate can be seen by signing into your router.

Re: Line status and profile

My line is a offnet (I was with Virgin before)
I tried running the speedtest and the diganostic but it didn't give me any results.
I am not using the Plusnet provided router but my own D-Link Router as I didn't want to change the setup..
Speedtests are returning constants speeds of

Ah OK look slike your on a 80/20 FTTC product, then those speeds look fine, you will need to contact Plusnet and ask them to run a GEA test to get your actual sync rate, however at the speeds you have shown I wouldn't worry  Cheesy

Hi olisun,
Welcome to Plusnet and our community forums.
Your line looks spot on Smiley Your current sync rate is bang on 80Mb/s
Give us a nudge if you need anything.

Re: Line status and profile

I had to reboot my router today and first my download speeds dropped and I rebooted the modem to see if it cures that.
My download speed is back to normal but I have lost 5mb on my upload speed...  Cry
EDIT: Weird that it has gone up again...

Glad to see that's back to normal, if your speeds are fluctuating on wireless then I'd suggest changing your wireless channel to see if that helps.

Re: Line status and profile

Do not reboot the Modem as a matter of course. Fibre DLM can be quite aggressive and interpret this as a drop in connection.
Your Downstream sync speed on FTTC is the BT IP profile x1.033.

You don't need to get Plusnet to run a test, see above.
