Too late!
You're bloody lucky! I DREAM of 2 Mbps speeds. Sometimes I wake up in the middle of one of those dreams and find the front of my pyjama trousers is moist.

Quote from: spraxyt … and, the answer to the original question is that the 8000 kbps High-speed Broadband setting on the website has always really been 7150 kbps, the maximum IP Profile that BT assign for an 8128 kbps sync. So basically nothing has changed, it just says 7150 kbps now.
I would say interleaving been switched on mine dropped from 8128 to 7150 when it was activated

The 8000 & 7150Kbps profiles are the same. 7150Kbps is the highest BT profile, so we just mirror this.
Andy - That shows nothing wrong with your profiling.

now i do have another question which you may want me to start a new thread but i mainly use my connection for online gaming, mostly Battlefield 2, and wondered if there is anything i can do to improve my ping as a lot of the servers are overseas. my mate up the road gets pings of around 20, where as i get anything from around 30 at lowest and up to 80 for even relatively local servers. we are both on plusnet, and again to nip the comments in the bud, i am a sad individual who is obsessed with numbers and immature pc based activities.
many thanks
Andy

Since you are close to the exchange line stability is unlikely to be a problem for you so requesting that interleaving be turned off should reduce your pings to the circa 20ms level you mention your friend has. You can request interleaving be turned off by raising a ticket, or by clicking the icon in the website Connection Settings folder if there is one.

Yes, you already have interleaving off, your stats say Fast Path (red text) which means that. Having CRC errors against Fast but zero against Interleaved confirms that.
One anomaly in the stats is that they say Downstream Line Attenuation is 63dB. If that were true you would be syncing around 2Mbps and not the 8Mbps you have. Has your router always reported that figure - it makes me wonder if the router is a little dodgy?

You can do a ping by opening a command window (Start->Run… type in cmd then click OK) and enter ping www.bbc.co.uk (or, of course, a different domain) at the chevron prompt. Enter exit to close the window.
