Unless you're on an extremely short quiet line, there will be some FEC errors in the router stats with interleaving on. If it's off, there will be none, whatever the line condition.

Two ways - first is to do a tracert to www.bbc.co.uk for example - times of around 30 to 40 msecs indicate interleaving is still on
Second is to follow the instructions here http://community.plus.net/forum/index.php/topic,80792.msg659208.html

Why add the extra hops to the BBC Jim? Surely a server in the Plusnet suite is far better e.g.
C:\Users\John>tracert ntp.plus.net
Tracing route to ntp.plus.net [212.159.6.9]
over a maximum of 30 hops:
1 2 ms 1 ms 1 ms dg834 [192.168.0.1]
2 13 ms 11 ms 12 ms lo0-homesurf.ptn-ag03.plus.net [195.166.130.6]
3 12 ms 11 ms 12 ms gi2-8-805.ptn-gw01.plus.net [84.92.2.17]
4 12 ms 12 ms 12 ms vl55.ptn-lb01.plus.net [212.159.2.124]
5 12 ms 13 ms 11 ms cdns01.plus.net [212.159.6.9]
Trace complete.

If you can't remember the name I'm sure you can remember the IP addresses!
Edit: Also it's the second from bottom entry in the link in my signature
C:\Users\John>nslookup ntp.plus.net
Server: cdns01.plus.net
