Ticket Raised for intermittent internet

I contacted support last night regarding an intermittent internet connection. I did the master socket test as suggested and posted an update to the ticket.

Could this be looked at for me as it is causing a lot of inconvenience?

Many thanks

Re: Ticket Raised for intermittent internet

Thanks for getting in touch @greshoff

I've tested your line today and I can see that there are some settings on your line that are set too low that may be making your speeds seem slow or your connection intermittent.

I've arranged for the line to be reset to try and fix this. Can you monitor the connection over the next couple of days and let us know how you get on?

Thanks, Which settings were set  too low?

I'll keep an eye on things over the next few days and let you know. Hopefully resetting the line will improve things

Thanks for getting back to us @greshoff

Essentially the Signal to Noise Ratio (or SNR for short) was set too low for your line and may have been trying to make your line faster than it can handle.

Have you noticed any improvement since the reset?

Intermittent disconnections

I had the same problem a few weeks ago which I thought had been resolved by plusnet however it appears to have returned.  The  internet drops randomly. I have done all the usual master socket tests etc. Could someone have a look at my line to see if there is something going on? THanks

Re: Intermittent disconnections

Have you done the "quiet line" test; if voice service noisy, that will impact on ADSL quality.

Just dial "17070".
