Looks like you just had a brief blip in your sync speed. I'd expect your speeds to pick up again in the next 24 hours or so.

I had to reysync last night (nothing to do with Broadband just needed to cut the power for another reason). I resynced lower but the test on BT now shows the IP profile increased (good) actual throughput though is very low.
Test1 comprises of Best Effort Test: -provides background information.
Your DSL connection rate: 4704 kbps(DOWN-STREAM), 448 kbps(UP-STREAM)
IP profile for your line is - 4500 kbps

The info on the member centre says my line rate is still 3000.

My concern is that according to BT my IP Profile is 4500 but I'm seeing speeds of under 3000.
When the IP Profile was 4000 (lower) I was getting speeds of around 3700 (higher).

I took another look at James excellent explanation on his blog.
It says
"You can also see your current profiled speed on our network, which is designed to mirror BTs IP Profile and is updated twice a day."
It looks like mine hasnty been updated as it still shows 3000 while BT;s IP Profile is 4500.
Do I need to restart my router to reconnect get this changed?

I've just updated the profiling at this end to match the 4500Kbps at BTs end.
You may need to reboot your router to get the improved speeds.

I'm syncing now at 4832; slightly better than earlier in the week when it was 4704. When I was syncing at 4704 BT set my IP Profile at 4500. Why when I am syncing at a higher rate (4832) has the IP profile gone down to 4000.
Now I'm getting around 3700-3800 according to the speed testers so all is back to how it was before my blip. Its the illogical IP profile that is mystifying me now.
Other stats from my belkin router are
Noise margin
Down 9.8 Up19.0
Output power
Down 19.7 Up 11.9
Attenuation
Down 40.5 Up 23.0

Can you post some complete router ADSL stats, ie Sync Speed, Attenuation, Noise Margin, both Downstream and Up. Some stats from mid-dayish, and some from mid-evening.
Do you have any extension wiring - fixed or otherwise, what's your setup? (Is a ring wire connected?)

I am not in the master socket, but am happy to trade speed for a convenient place to site the wireless router.
Sync speed - in the evening a reconnect will be around the 4832 posted sometimes 4700 ish. I've actually had around 5300 for the last few days . It was blowing a gale last night and it held the connection so I'm hoping this is going to be OK for a while fingers crossed - and the IP profile and my account profile will catch up to more than 4000 in a few days.
Attenuation Down 40.5 Up 23.0 Never changes
Noise Margin Down 9.8 Up 19.0 though the Downstream can vary between 7-10.
Like I say I'm actually quite OK with what I'm getting now as I'm clocking a download speed of around 3700 - perfectly adequate for my needs.
what would you say would be "radically" right then
