Re: Plusnet ip profile different to Bt

Hi ngfletcher1967,
I've reset your line and your IP profile has increased to 5Mbps.  I've made sure our profile is also aligned, so you should be able to experience these improved speeds now. If not, disconnecting and reconnecting via the router interface should force the profile changes in to action.
Cheers,

Hi
Thanks for that.  Do I need to restart the router?  I reconnected the internet but still only getting 1.8 Mp.
The plusnet  profile is still showing 2 but Bt wholesale is showing 5 mp.
thanks for your help.

Re: Plusnet ip profile different to Bt

No probs, it would be best to do it by logging into the router if possible.  Same way as described here if you can.
Thanks

Re: Plusnet ip profile different to Bt

My router is a fritzbox 7170.
I use the reconnect button which generated a new ip address but keep the dsl connection in place. I cant find a button which makes a new dsl connection apart from turning the router off?
thanks

Re: Plusnet ip profile different to Bt

that is all you need to do - creating a new IP address happens when the PPP session drops and that is what triggers the Plusnet profile change effect

Yes I just reconnected to get a new ip address and I get this speed.
Brilliant!!!!  Lets hope it says at this speed but anything over 3MP is great.
It has been 3 hours with no reconnection so that is great . Although it seems to be a night when most of the disconnection occur.
Thanks for your help again.
