Resetting the router has brought the noise margin and connection speed back to normal but the dl speed is still barely fast enough to move the speedtest dial.
I will setup now and report back( if I can get back online)

Where do you normally have the filter plugged in, at the master socket, or on the end of the extension lead?
Please don't forget to say which type of Master socket it is (reply #14) and how long this extension lead is.

So do you think it's the cable? Swapped one for the other so I'd be suprised if it was a issue.

I guess from the description, the hall is too narrow for a filter and phone to be left there permanently? Just considering options.

So you are plugged into the test socket or front plate (not that it should make much difference with no fixed extension wiring) with a quality rat's tail filter ?
The reason I'm questioning all this, is that something has obviously caused that drop in sync - it's either interference or an intermittent connection on your line.
If you want me to suggest the best way to connect up your system once your problem is sorted, I'll provide a bit of info, but you'll have to spend around £10-£15 if you are a fairly competent DIYer.

No joy on the current speed. I've try the disconnect method a few times this evening and it seems stuck in snail mode! I guess I'll just have to put up with my sons moaning about not getting his Xbox fix for another day! Might force him to get some fresh air for a change.
