My dal rest on 06/09/17 and since then the noise level on download has halved from 6db to 3db. It has consistently been 6db. hub reset has not resolved this issue. Speed has not significantly reduced but broadband seems to hang.
Could this be checked please.

I'll check it out still with Plusnet. My upload noise level has remained the same though.

The idea of reducing the SNR is to increase the speed not reduce it. So, providing the background noise is at a fairly constant level then the speed should increase. If there are periods of increased noise then during these periods there will be errors, which will require data to be re-sent and therefore cause delays.
The OR DSLAM is designed to find the best compromise between download speed and error level automatically by adjusting the SNR. If you are having many errors then I would expect the SNR to automatically increase again.
I have been running very successfully with a SNR of 3.3dB for many months.

Sorry for the delayed response. I've set the noise margin for you now at 6db.
Can you let us know how things go over the next 24 hours?
