If you are meaning the new (well old) router I have swapped in for the faulty one for I can get you those too. It seems to be getting the 16mb I was getting before though on this one now, so that's nice. This one's a Thomson TG585.
I'd be happy if I could get to the cause of the troubles I had on my TG582, as that is the newer router.
But yeah, since changing over the internet has been literally perfect, which is nice
Thanks again.

Your line (for the given attenuation) should synch a bit faster than it is doing. Is the router in the master socket? Are there any extensions? Is there any noise on the line - dial 17070 option 2 and do it regularly, looking for intermittent noise.
Comparable synch speed details from the other router would be of interest. What version of firmware is installed o the TG582n?

I have attached the information for the router I am currently using for you to check. The firmware on the TG582n is r10.2.0.B I believe. I thought about trying to downgrade the firmware but it wouldn't seem to let me?

Would something like: http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B00BP0SASI/ref=s9_simh_gw_p147_d0_i1?pf_rd_m=A3P5ROKL5A1OLE&pf_rd...
Work for PN Broadband? Seems to be far more powerful etc than Plusnet supplied router? Also, should I ever get Fibre, presume this should be compatible even if only as a router, with the modem being the one supplied by PN with fibre.

Those error counts are garbage, it'll be related to attempting to display or store -1 or some other invalid value, the number is near 2^32.
@coatseh
The TP-Link TD-W8980 would work with Plusnet ADSL, and although it could be used with a separate modem, separate FTTC modems are no longer supplied by Plusnet. The 8980 is actually the same hardware as the 9980, so if you enjoy risking breaking things, it's possible to flash it with the 9980 firmware.
The TP-Link would not be to everyone's taste, as it doesn't work with any DSL stats monitoring programs, doesn't provide very detailed stats, and is based on a Lantiq chipset (the same chipset as the BT HomeHub 5A and Plusnet Hub One) rather than Broadcom.

Would you be able to recommend me a router under say £50? Ideally the cheaper the better haha!

Perhaps you could try experimenting with changing a few settings via telnet: http://npr.me.uk/telnet.html#wirelessn
You could even try disabling 11n on the 582n and just setting it to 11b/g - since I assume the older router is using 11g (the 585v7 is 11g, the 585v8 is 11n but only with one antenna so only does 65Mbps by default).
