Please do try running the BTw Performance test again. It's a facility that should work for everyone, when you do the diagnostic bit, the data is stored on a BT server that Plusnet can see and that can be vital in more complicated faults, so Plusnet must get BTw to fix it if it's not working for you.
Your current line speed being 5.5Mbps is because your speed dropped to 6464 as noted in your reply #36 at 1529.
I expect Matthew will do that SNR Reset for you.

should I be doing anything while the reset is going on?
Just heard from a local business up the road that their phone line is still down - I think there have been some major issues at the exchange recently. Anyway, at the moment the speed feels okay, but I would still appreciate confirmation that all is okay from you guys if that is possible.
I should clarify also , that I did the BT test with wireless connection. It's quite complicated getting the router wired up to the PC for an ether connection without losing the phone line - all in different rooms, and would mean a lot of long wires trailing all over the place... plus I haven't been able to get out of the town lately to buy new cables due to floods, so hoping not to have to go down that route.
I should also add, that the DSL cable that I was using was going across a doorway - I put a mat over it, but probably walked on it quite often - could that have caused damage to the cable? Things seemed to get better when I tried the new cable. The new one is hanging across the doorway, so I'll have to do something with it - in the end, probably buy a longer one I can thread around the door frame - or does the length of cable cause problems too? So many variables!

Yes, longer standard ADSL cables will be a problem because they aren't twisted pair wiring. Twisted pair cables are available and I'll give you a link to a reliable source later if you want it. Do not be conned by ads for Hi speed modem cables with gold plated connectors rubbish. Most are not twisted pair. It's can be a minefield. I'll post back this evening.
