Quote from: Joanne I do have a life really...honest! Im just staying up to watch the rerun of X Factor as I missed it earlier.
I'm not sure that a re-run of X Factor qualifies as a 'life'.
My excuse is that I'm just winding down with a cup of coffee (de-caff, of course, at this time of night) after getting back from playing a gig for a joint 50th birthday party. It's not a bad way to spend a Saturday night - go out & have fun at a party & come home with more money than you left the house with.

I did actually think that myself after I'd posted it, lol
I'm not sure that budding pop stars come home from gigs and go on ISP forums though!!!

I also noticed the phone number associated with my account is incorrect, the last 3 digits are 758 (the number at my old property), when they should be 958. Will this affect anything? I tried explaining this to customer services but I don't think anything was done because as soon as I mentioned I was having problems I was passed to tech support.

I've just picked up your PN profile to 6500 now so you should see an increase. You wont have to reboot your end as it will be done when I changed the profile and won't affect the DLM.

Earlier in the week the rj11 cable was loose on my router so there was no internet for a day or so (I was away at the time).
When I get back I find the speeds are slow.
BT speedtest shows the profile is still high enough but the speed is poor
Quote Download speedachieved during the test was - 428 Kbps
For your connection, the acceptable range of speeds is 600-7150 Kbps.
Additional Information:
Your DSL Connection Rate :8128 Kbps(DOWN-STREAM), 448 Kbps(UP-STREAM)
IP Profile for your line is - 7150 Kbps
A second speedtest using bt test account didn't work, it connected and authenticated me ok, but couldn't resolve the address.
PlusNet page here shows it differently - https://portal.plus.net/my.html?action=data_transfer_speed
Quote Estimated line speed:
6 - Checked on 2010-06-03 21:20:03
Current line speed:
500
The speeds I get reflect what plusnet are saying above. Do they have separate profiles?

Yes they both (BT and Plusnet profiles) will restrict the speed

I've just checked on two BT systems and your profile is showing as 500k. We need you to be connected for at least 72 hours before we could look at that any further, which will be about 7.20 tomorrow night. After that, if it hasn't lifted we'll have to look at why.
