The result is that the line sometimes resyncs with a speed of about 3700kbps instead of just over 4Mbps
So if I disconnect the router when I retire for the night and reconnect it in the morning (using the connect/disconnect option on the router before/after unplugging the connection to the phone line) will this have any effects on the DLM system in the exchange

I can tell when it has happened as the noise margin in the Routerstats icon shows a noise margin over over 8dB and I then do a manual resync.
This wouldn't be a problem except the Plusnet profile can sometimes pick up the low sync and then I have 3 days of slow speeds

if your wires are all overhead then certainly it would point to some part of it suffering from undue degradation, I know a few people with similar problems but there all down to damaged cables (where some chimp though he could get a few bob for scrap) but not so bad as to have forced BT to replace them immediately....

I had a very competent engineer check the whole thing to sort out a problem with the line disconnecting occasionally when the phone rang
