Re: Slow speeds - Noisy Line

Hi Bueller,
Glad you got the reference even if that wasn't your reasoning Smiley
I've just checked the phone fault we've got raised for you and it's saying that an engineer visit has been booked for tomorrow afternoon - I hope this isn't a problem, please let me know if so and I'll get it rearranged for you. I hope that when the phone fault is fixed your broadband speeds will pick up - usually they do in these cases.

Re: Slow speeds - Noisy Line

Hi Matt,
thanks for your help on this.
The other half is going to be in tomorrow afternoon for the engineer so leave the appointment booked.
Hopefully they can sort their line out  Roll_eyes and speeds pick up.
Thanks again

Re: Slow speeds - Noisy Line

@ Matt
Did the BT Speedtest again last night and my IP Profile is coming back up  Smiley
Tonight I ran it again and it asked me to continue with Test 2, but to log on as bt_user_test@plusdsl.net.
These are the results

Your help is much appreciated.
