For the past 48 hours, I have experienced very short periods of "no broadband check your broadband has been activated" notices appearing on screen... these outages, only last for about a minute or so, and then the router seems to pick up the broadband connection and everything is hunky dory again.... this happened about 4 times last evening, and also the previous evening... (can`t say about during the day, cos I`m not usually on then)...
I suspect it is some local thieves changing the wires over to wet string, but thought I had better drop you a line to let you know it is happening, as no "outage" notice has appeared for my exchange number.... (not that I remember, anyway!).
I have powered down, and re-connected, just to change gateway, and make sure the speed is still up to between 2 and 4 megs... everything seems to be ok this morning... hopefully it will be when I get back in tonight !..
have a nice day.

Seems to have settled down and back to about 4megs speed.... which I am happy with...
Moving house soon, so hope the new place is just as good on speed and connectivity.
(Thanks for putting another shilling in the meter ! )

which may be because I am down at the sea front watching the ships go by, and using my mobile 3G dongle !

My line is interleaved as its a long line to begin with and I had similar problems, does your router give you the upstream snr? If mine drops below 8 it will eventually suffer from a number of resyncs.

Managed to get the checker to work.... here is the post code check...
Quote
Your exchange is ADSL enabled, and our initial check on your postcode indicates that your line should be able to have an ADSL broadband service that provides a fixed line speed up to 2Mbps.
Our check also indicates that your line currently supports an estimated ADSL Max broadband line speed of 6.5Mbps; typically the line speed would range between 5.5Mbps and 8Mbps.
Our check also indicates that your line currently supports an estimated ADSL2+ broadband line speed of 12Mbps; typically the line speed would range between 7Mbps and 17Mbps.
The actual stable line speed supportable will be determined during the first 10 days of use. This speed may change over time, to ensure line stability is maintained.
so things look pretty good !
