I'm trying to understand after some issues with the DLM reducing my speed the differences between BTW and the Plus net quoted line speed.
My BTW test (Attached) indicates a IP profile of 19.82 hence a sync sped of 20.50. However the Portal reports my line speed of 19.8 very small difference but why ?
(Earlier post refers and closed ticket)

which is factually correct but clear as mud
Quote What does "Current line speed" mean?
The speed shown above is based on your sync speed. This is always a little higher than the speed at which data will actually be downloaded over your broadband connection
Actually it is based on the IP profile which is 88.2% of sync speed and this has always been the case although on 20CN the IP profile was calculated differently

However is that figure on the Portal Sync Speed or IP profile?
In either case it doesn't match the BTW test figures so one must be out by some degree morte than 100kpbs !

The figure you quote 0.987 is actually 0.968 and is applicable only for FTTC not ADSL
For ADSL it is 0.882 as I stated
By the BT test figures I assume you mean the speed test result as this is always a bit lower than the profile
I have previously explained how the Plusnet profile is calculated

Hope that makes the query clearer.

It's not a major issue I was interested in why there's a difference.
