Ever since the upgrade a few months ago the reliability is rubbish.
I used to get about 4.5MBPS downstream and 380KBPS upstream and it worked reliably.
Now I get 7.7MBPS down and 660KBPS up but it falls over most evenings at about 9pm.
I was totally happy with the old speed and reliability.
This chase for speed is mad, reliability is much more important.
Can it be turned back to what we had before?

I did that because ADSL2 with uncapped upload was unstable for me

Fortunately there is a solution as Plus net have finally a fiber product that fits our needs! I don't understand why they moved me back to ADSL2+ on the first of August!

Question:
If I stay on 21CN but revert to ADSL1, do I still get the advantage of more or less instant profile of 88·2% of sync?

However
If you resync fairly soon after the drop it seems to miss the drop in the Delta reports

So far so good with the settings I am on
I have found the Profile to sort itself out immediately the router is rebooted or within a couple of hours or circa 11-12mdt that night.

Yes it was about February you changed things.
I am, I think 5KM from the exchange and have about 30 metres of drop wire feeding my house (I think it's 2 x twisted pairs in the black sheath).
Your system suggests I will get 3 mbps, but I get up to 7.7 mbps.
Many of the disconnections will be due to the noise margin dropping to 0dB after 9PM each evening, maybe medium wave broadcast pick-up on the drop wire?
I was happy with the 4.5mbps and reliable connection I had before February, what would ADSL1 do for me?
Regards,
Chris
