I've just ordered broadband from plusnet after two years with BT.
When the broadband connection is switched over, will my bRAS profile have to re-train?

Hi there,
Yes, a line does re-train following a migration.
It's the usual 10 day process but that shouldn't mean living with slower than usual speeds from the off.
Let us know if you perhaps have a specific concern about your line that might have prompted you to ask, unless you were just curious

The reason I asked was that two years ago (when the line was first activated) I ended up stuck on a 2mbit profile after the line had gone through its 10 day training period, despite it being only 300yds long and with very good stats (sync speed has been no lower than 8128kbps since install). It was sorted after some to-ing and fro-ing.
Hopefully the same won't happen this time!

Thanks. Just a bit curious really. The line itself is fine.

What would have happened is you'd have not been provisioned on ADSL Max, but rather remained on a previous 2Mb Fixed provision.
Same thing happened to SWMBO when she migrated from TalkTalk.

I don't think so, as the line was a re-activation after the previous owners' moved out (so there was no existing broadband). I was told at the time that it was a problem with very good/stable lines that meant that DLM would sometimes struggle to respeed correctly. I have seen other lines stuck on old provisions as you mention, but they ususally synced at that speed (2mbit), mine always synced at 8mbit.
