Re: conection speed slower now ive change my plusnet package :(

Changing packages has no effect on sync speed so there must be some other cause.
Are the figures you quoted your sync speed or the speed you get with a speed tester?
Can you post your full line stats (line attenuation & SNR/margin)
What does it say under high speed broadband on the portal (under connection settings).
What does www.speedtester.bt.com say, post the full report.

What about the other info I asked for - it is all needed to make an assessment of what the problem might be?

What ADSL equipment do you use?
There is usually a status page which shows sync speed and line stats. How to find this on some common routers is here.
Also run the BT speedtest I linked to.

No, you need something that says sync rate or line attenuation or SNR / Noise margin.
The link to Kitz's website explains how to get them.

Then you firmware may be old as detailed on Kitz page. Does using the voyager 100 instructions get anything? If not you will have to wait for your new router.

Hi Brett,
This recent change (from 2000Kbps to 1500Kbps from what I can tell) isn't related to your account change, but merely a slight blip in sync speeds.
Look at your line history over the last couple of weeks, it has been fluctuating between 1500Kbps and 2000Kbps, so this shouldn't be something unexpected, but more of "one of those things".
