It's likely that the rebooting of the Modem/Router will cause the speeds to be lower in the long term.
If you're able to leave your connection solidly connection for a week or so, if your line can cope staying at 72Mb, the speeds will return.

The homehub 5 is only being used as a router , still connected to the openreach modem ....
Im not rebooting the modem ...only the router ...and everytime i seem to leave it for a few hours , when i come back and do speed test it always drops back down to 55 ish ...reboot router fixes things ....last time i tried rebooting it ..it was still same so just disconnected from net from inside hh5 , then reconnected and speed was back upto 65 .....bt speed site says line is now upto 68 meg download ....yesterday it was 72 ....so guess line is stabilising .....but why do i have to disconnet then reconnect to net everytime i leave it for few hours to get speeds back up ?? is it something to do with the gateway ? or just a naff router lol ...got Netgear Nighthawk R7000 coming tomorrow .
Cheers

That's fine, it shouldn't have any diverse effect on your line then. Are the speed tests your running Wireless or via an Ethernet Cable?

But disconnecting and reconnecting from internet from inside hh5 shouldn't make any difference to the wifi ..or ethernet connection…

Please visit http://speedtest.btwholesale.com and run the initial test and click on 'Further Diagnostics' to compete the in depth test. Once the test has completed, could you attach a screenshot of your results onto this thread please?
Can you please do the above without dropping the PPP session.

There are quite a few drops, the Faults Team will pick up on this. It's really important to not switch your router off whilst the Fault Ticket is open as our Faults Team won't know which drops are being caused by you restarting the router. They should be back in touch shortly.

well new router has come today , so after test i removed the hh5 , disconnect from net from inside it first ...then replaced it with the netgear router ...but while on go i refitted the unlocked openreach modem so now can check stats as thought line was fixed so fitted my lock one again .
Line speed estimated has gone up by 1 meg since ....and done another test on bt site with new router ..will attatch pic again.
In the logs you sent , i can see the disconnects this morning ...also was told that it was raining again when this happened .....but the ones from 16.00 hours are when i disconnects dsl so let them know that .
Im not going to do anything else now unlocked modem is in place and new router fitted ....can now check logs for disconnects myself ......but if still keeps happening then the BT man said need the line from house to pole then to the connection in pavement as its probably old .
Atleast i can keep eye on things now aswell as yourselves

On a side note , haven't got a laptop psu in the vicinity as they can be very problematic.
