Your exchange is ADSL enabled, and our initial test on your line indicates that your line should be able to have an ADSL broadband service that provides a fixed line speed up to 1Mbps. However due to the length of your line the 1Mbps service may require an engineer visit who will, where possible, supply the broadband service.
Our test also indicates that your line currently supports an estimated ADSL Max broadband line speed of 2Mbps; typically the line speed would range between 1.5Mbps and 4.5Mbps.
Our initial test on your line indicates that your line may not support a reliable ADSL2+ broadband service, with current technology. However, an order for 250Kbps broadband speed will still be accepted, but an engineer may need to visit who will, where possible, supply the service.
This, to me ( the uninitiated), seems to say that the line is not reliable. am i reading this wrong? I am clutching at straws here.

BT's DSL checker seems to have gone even more conservative this week, and this message is in line with that. And I always wonder whether they temper that message by actual experience of the line - so if you are experiencing problems, then the "predictor" tells you some pretty dire numbers.
Your router stats seem to keep giving a downlink attenuation figure of 46 - 49dB. Kitz's speed calculator suggests that this will give you a maximum line speed of around 5000kbps on ADSL or slightly more on ADSL2+. Irrespective of BT's conservative message, I can't help but feel that you should be doing a bit better than you currently are - and of course, it should do that without the disconnections.
My parent's line has attenuation of 47dB and a speed of 5500. The Kitz figures are indeed in the right ballpark.
Using FTTC since 2011. Currently on 80/20 Unlimited Fibre Extra.

Seems, that to keep the figures good in the customer satisfaction surveys, the idea is to 'fix' the easy ones. leave the hard ones so people migrate. Or that is the way i am feeling.

I have just bought a new phone ( thats number 3) in an attempt to aid my problems. I am getting paranoid that it is my phone causing problems, and I have no way of checking because i don't have a test/engineers socket to plug the modem into.
Anyhow, here are the latest Kitz results. Ok , only running a few minutes - but i have made several calls whilst connected to see if I can mess things up with the phone. All seems ok so far , to me anyway. Anyone give me some insight into the results please, as i am not really sure what I am looking at. Just that the errors are a lot less than before.

your speed is banded due to a low SNR it needs resetting and the line retrained

Banding does not cause a low noise margin - it causes a high value as it restricts the downstream speed
Retraining isn't going to help until the underlying problem is fixed
It is likely that you line resynched with a 6dB noise margin and it dropped to 4dB as it got dark
