Re: anotherUltra-slowFTTC download speed

Morning darklight,
Sorry to hear you're having issues with the speed of the service, I've just taken a quick look over it for you and everything seems to be showing as correct with regards to the speed profiles. Are you able to perform another BT speed tests to see if we can glean the additional details for our checks?
I understand that this failed for you the first time round however this could now have changed, if you're able to get this to run would you also click on the  'Further Diagnostics' button so we can grab the full suite of results.

I'll be waiting doing the  BT speed tests throughout the day, just wanna know if DLM is on my line, must have been a massive catastrophic load of errors to make it drop from 73 to 8.
