Speed on my new service

I was installed with Unlimited FTTC on Monday 3rd.  When I ordered the expected down speed was 69Mbps.
The line should have stabilised by now, but the actual figures I'm getting are low to mid 50s. with the best down speed I've seen being about 56Mbps
A  BT Wholesale speed test just now gave 51.98 down and 13.68 up.
The tests report:  IP Profile for your line is - 58.64 Mbps
which I can't seem to match up with any of the VDSL2 profiles!
I'd have thought I was close enough to use profile 17a ...
Thanks
Dave

Re: Speed on my new service

Oh yes, absolutely, and if 58.64Mbps is the best sync speed I can get ..
It's just that I expected to see a higher sync speed than 58.64 based on the before connection projection.
thanks
