new customer _ slow speed after 10 days

hi, im new with plusnet package unlimited broadband and calls . My broadband service was activated on 18/04 and  think 10 days training just finished but download connection rate has never gone beyond 2300kBps for the last  few days and jumping all the time.(between 800-2300 max)  IP profile started at  5 mb then lower every day max speed was in the second day about 3500 kbps.There is only one socket in my flat and was ready for fibre  but i removed the face plate and router(Technicolor TG582n) is connected into the test socket 24/7, i have no phone no sky etc.  Let me share with you my today stats and can I ask for your suggestions of what could be wrong (can I get more upload speed, is it stuck IP profile I read about, etc. ?).
(see attachments). Thanks for any help.

Re: new customer _ slow speed after 10 days

Oh my, that's a lot of errors there on your line. The first thing to check is for noise / crackles on the phone line, call 17070 (on a corded phone if possible) and select option 2 for quiet line.
That's RPM to you!!

Report a phone fault (login required) and Plusnet will test the line.

Re: new customer _ slow speed after 10 days

Message from plusnet today:
"I contacted Openreach for an update on your fault. They advised that further work is required, and a skilled engineer is needed to complete this work.
There is no new estimated repair date however we should have more information in a few days time. "
More days with low speed. Great !!!

Re: new customer _ slow speed after 10 days

Hi,
Sorry for the delay, it appears that the located fault needs more work than initially firth thought, we'll continue to chase this and keep you updated.

Re: new customer _ slow speed after 10 days

hi,
Another bt engineer  turned up today, looks like the line is fixed (less errors on router stats),  but broadband speed still not what expected.Also im connected to adsl max not adsl2+ like before, so still don't known what's going on.

Re: new customer _ slow speed after 10 days

Hi there,
That'll be the DLM system reducing your line profile as a result of the drops in connection, to try and stabilise the line. Now that's been sorted out you should find the speed picks up over the next couple of days, it may well be worth (if you can) disconnecting the router via the button on its config pages then powering it off for 5 minutes or so then back on once a day around lunch time, as that will help the DLM record better sync rates and thus pick up the profile more quickly.
If it's still not uplifted after a couple of days of solid connections we'll get the SNR reset for you and let the line retrain.

Re: new customer _ slow speed after 10 days

hi,
After 5 days broadband speed still the same, too slow. Also i have done the BT availability checker and noticed that this has changed. Joke !!!  Could you get the SNR reset for me, please.

Re: new customer _ slow speed after 10 days

A reboot of the modem/router may show an improvement but I suspect not as that's looking like a banded speed. BUT I'm unconvinced that the fault has been fully cleared as the stats today are showing a lower noise margin on both Upstream and Downstream compared to the stats on the 07/05/2013 for an almost identical sync speed. A line reset is needed to to remove banding and then you may see if the fault is really fixed.

Re: new customer _ slow speed after 10 days

Hi kemotr,
I've placed a SNR reset on your line, this usually takes around 4 hours to to affect.
Let me know if there's an improvement with your speed.
