<173> Apr 2 17:53:10 xDSL linestate down
<173> Apr 2 17:53:23 xDSL linestate up (ITU-T G.992.1; downstream: 7616 kbit/s, upstream: 832 kbit/s; output Power Down: 19.8 dBm, Up: 12.5 dBm; line Attenuation Down: 21.0 dB, Up: 13.5 dB; snr Margin Down: 6.1 dB, Up: 11.0 dB)
I think this suggests it wasn't just the upstream that failed as the bit swaps are across the whole range.

But in any event, that's by far an insignificant number of Bitswaps compared to what I saw in my tests, see attached - not that I think one can draw any significant conclusions as to what's happened in your situation (unless there was loss of PPP perhaps).
Have you had any ring-trips at all? I'm suspecting that if it's not an exchange or tie-pair fault, it's more likely to be an HR or partial Rectified Loop fault somewhere on the line which could well be intermittent unless it's happening with every call.

Even though I am not losing PPP it is causing me problems. The VPN times out and has to reconnect. If I am in the middle of a VoIP telephone call it drops.
Sync is lost for every incoming call, even if there is no actual phone plugged in to the filter. Outgoing calls don't cause a problem.

I presume your fault has been bounced back to BTw?

It can't be bounced back to BTw at the moment because of the open phone fault which BT think is between the CAB and me (that's what their remote test said). I'm going to let that run first to see if it makes any difference.

Except yours will authenticate straight away, unless like me you left the password out (on purpose).

I was expecting the PPP link down to be before the the xDSL linestate up. Perhaps I didn't leave it long enough.

One interesting point: The test head in the exchange is not working and apparently has not been for some time. It may be false results are being given from line tests. The engineer said this had been reported to the manager who'd done nothing about it! This is making the investigation more difficult for the engineers.

Before: Sync typically 7616, Target SNR 6db, Fastpath
After: Sync 5632, Target SNR 15db, Interleaved
Oh, and I'm still losing sync on an incoming call.
The engineer alleged that it's because I'm on Max Premium and that when they dropped it to standard Max the problem went away. He didn't have a lot to say that when I told him I'd previously been on 20CN Max Premium on two different exchanges and I didn't have this issue!
