Re: Ticket #83230791 Help Please

Good morning.
I've just taken a look over your line and can see that you're experiencing very low speeds due to the sheer amount of drops your connection has had recently:

I've made some changes to the settings for your line which should help stabilise it for you. This will bring your speeds back to around where they were before. Please allow up to 2 hours for this change to take effect.

Thanks for that Chris, but the router synch is already back down to 2Mb!
I am convinced that this is an intermittent line noise problem, the noise on the line can intermittently be heard on the BT quiet line test. OR were out to investigate on Mon 17th but line appeared quiet at that point so no fault was found. I have just tried the quiet line test again and sure enough there are sporadic crackles on the line.
As luck would have it I have a senior networks consultant in the family who has checked things out and concurs with the above.

Update:
Speed now down to 1Mb; frequent disconnections; audible noise on line.
Any idea how long before I receive a response to this ticket?

Well, 31st has been and gone and nothing appears to have changed. Broadband now down to 0.5Mb; still audible noise on line and no update to fault ticket.
I would appreciate an update from someone please.
Thanks

Hi kmanghan,
Our suppliers have changed the location of the fault after a engineer has been out to the exchange but has been unable to locate the fault. Our suppliers would like to arrange for an engineer to visit your premises for further investigation.
Any ideas when you would be free from Thursday onwards to get this sorted out for you?

I can be available all day Thursday, but not Friday at all. Assuming that OR don't have weekend appointments the next opportunity would be Monday PM.

Thanks for that.
Unfortunately there's no weekend appointments in your area at the moment. I've got you booked in for Thursday morning between 8am-1pm.

Re: Ticket #83230791 Help Please

BT OR have been out and repaired a bad joint in an underground box in the street. No noise now on line, but DLM has the line rate capped at 288Kb so current DL synch is 288Kb with an SNR of 21.5db!
Could you do an SNR reset for me please with default of 6, which should be the final step of the resolution.
Thank you again.

I've put a request through for the SNR Reset, that should be complete within the next 4 working hours.

Thanks Chris, everything stable here now at 12.3 Mb, and a nice quiet phone line.
I'll give it 24 hours and then close the ticket.
