When web browsing sites such as BBC news take a long time to load ( sometimes a minute or more ), also emails are not being received, windows live mail is configured for my plusnet account, G mail and hotmail.
It reports an error message saying ( hotmail ) sign in unsuccessful as no internet connection found, as well as other errors such as
Quote There was an error when attempting to connect to the Windows Live Calendar service. If the error persists, check to see if there's an upgrade of Windows Live Mail available or contact a service representative
The BT speed test site will not load, it either has an error message ( firefox unable to find server/connect) or states system busy/unavailable.
I have tried re-booting the router but this has no effect

@pint are both laptop and pc on Win 10 - always worth mentioning in case someone recognises it as Win 10 specific.

@pint
This is certainly really odd, I was anticipating seeing some major anomalies in the stats, but the only thing that is immediately obvious is your Downstream Sync speed (Bandwidth down) at 12,631 is well short of the approx. 17Mbps a line of you length ought to achieve. But that in itself should not give the issues you are seeing, not at all.
Do you know how to open a command prompt? if so can you do the following and post the results -
ping ntp.plus.net
tracert ntp.plus.net

Ah, right, in a way no surprise there, it's using the 582n spooflist (the intercept cache table) for the IP address because it's not getting the IP address returned from DNS before things time-out.
OK, can you post the full information of the Firmware and Hardware from the Technicolor Gateway page when you log into the TG582n - except delete the last 6 characters of the serial number.
The can you do a Factory Reset, either using the Link at the bottom of the Router page, or using the pin in the reset button at the back - hold it in for just over 8 seconds.
Then post back new stats and whether there's any improvement in performance.
PS. just had a forum error trying to post this, so the forum is playing up again, nothing new!

Just done a restore settings ( back up made just before factory re-set) and back to square 1, very slow dial up style browsing but working.
and a BT wholesale speedtest ( after trying ) shows this, which is significantly faster than i was previously getting ( speeds have usualy been around 5-8mbps) should these be even higher?
Download speedachieved during the test was - 10.6 Mbps
For your connection, the acceptable range of speeds is 4 Mbps-21 Mbps.
IP Profile for your line is - 11.09 Mbps
