Only been with plusnet a couple of weeks, and hopeless speeds/dropouts so far. When it all goes well I do get around 8Mbps, but that doesn't seem to last (certainly not long enough to stream a movie...)
Anyway, would love any community diagnostic feedback... Here's what I see:

BT speed test (things were going ok when this ran - earlier I got as low as 0.5-1.5Mbps):

For your connection, the acceptable range of speeds

is 4 Mbps-21 Mbps.
IP Profile for your line is - 9.03 Mbps

Additional Information:

Looking at your account you've advised of problems with the phone line? If so these are going to most likely be causing the broadband issues too, so they will need resolving first. This is in hand with one of my colleagues who has replied to you earlier today.

This morning when I woke up indeed the entire phone/broadband is down. But that was the first "phone problem". Anyway, as you say it is now in hand from your colleagues who have replied. So hopefully all will be resolved soon. We shall see.
