Can you advise your router data - synch speeds and noise margin - this shows you how http://www.kitz.co.uk/adsl/frogstats.htm#anchor11

Also run a bt speedtest to get your IP Profile.
Also post what it says under connection settings -> high speed broadband on the member centre.

Your High-speed Broadband Service
Your current broadband speed is 1500 Kbps

Click the link given by oldjim and scroll up to where the 2100 is and follow the instructions to find the status page.
We need the upstram and downstream sync rate, SNR (signal to noise or margin) and Line attenuation.
Then do the things I suggested.

Re: my broadband conection is very slow,any ideas why?

Looks like you have had line problems and BT have increased your target SNR (noise margin) to 15dB (from 6dB) meaning your sync rate is much lower than previously.
You need to raise a speed fault with PN via http://faults.plus.net and ask for your target SNR to be reset back to 6dB.
An IP profile of 1500 more or less correct for the a DS sync rate you have - it should really be 2000.

Re: my broadband conection is very slow,any ideas why?

Hi, just as a final check it's worth seeing what "theoretically" your line "might" be capable of:
go to Kitz web site: www.kitz.co.uk
On the home page click on the "Broadband Availability Checker" and enter your phone number and postcode when asked.
Post the results back here, removing any obviously personal stuff (e.g. postcode)

Re: my broadband conection is very slow,any ideas why?

The fault reporting process raises the ticket for you when it completes.
Tickets can be seen and raised via help & support -> Help assistant, and tickets can be seen via help & support -> My Questions. You may need to view closed questions.

Several days... longer if BT start playing silly buggers and rejecting it as no fault found.
You did say when raising the fault this is a target SNR fault. If not, raise a ticket and say your target SNR is at 15dB and needs to be lowered back to 6dB.
