I'm not specifically looking for a faster download speed (although it's always nice to get a faster connection) more prevent reduction of my upload speed.
As for the Fritz!Box settings, I'm not sure that's true (certainly not in my case) as I've entered no such settings for my connection (nor can I find where they would be entered if I wanted to).

Thanks for investigating @MattyC - your answer seems to indicate I should be able to take a contract extension without affecting my product, but if it does, there are ways to resolve it.

Nope
On this page you enter the data of your Internet connection, and can adjust the connection to special circumstances if needed.
Internet Service Provider
Select your Internet service provider:
Connection
Specify how the Internet connection should be established.
Select this kind of connection when the FRITZ!Box is connected to your DSL line using the DSL cable. The DSL modem integrated in the FRITZ!Box is used for the Internet connection.
Select this kind of connection if the "LAN 1" port of the FRITZ!Box is connected to a cable modem that establishes the Internet connection.
Select this kind of connection if the "LAN 1" port of the FRITZ!Box is connected to an already existing external modem or router.
Account Information
Is account information required?
Enter the Internet account information you received from your Internet service provider.
Connection Settings
The connection settings are already set to the most frequently used values. You can change these values if needed.
Internet Connection
VLAN Settings
Please note that a VLAN ID is required only in special cases. The required ID was supplied by your Internet service provider.

Exactly the same as you - however you are using the Plusnet or Openreach modem I presume? I'm using the Fritz!Box internal modem. Makes sense for the setting to exist in your case but not in mine - that's the same page I posted my settings from but the option is disabled if you use the internal modem.
Intrigued as to why you're using the original modem rather than the Fritz!Box one though

I lose about 10 meg in speed using the internal modem (huawei cabinet) so prefer to use the open reach modem that has a broadcom chip set that I can also monitor through dslstats. I can remember putting in 80000 and 20000 when trying the internal modem though.

I was right The values are read from the DSLAM. Without touching my modem, these are the new values;
Receive Direction | Send Direction | ||
---|---|---|---|
Max. DSLAM throughput | kbit/s | 55000 | 10000 |
Min. DSLAM throughput | kbit/s | 128 | 128 |
Attainable throughput | kbit/s | 36307 | 4337 |
Current throughput | kbit/s | 35060 | 4329 |
Seamless rate adaptation | off | off |
Which is the 55/10 profile that I've just been migrated to.
@MattyC looks like the new profile has taken effect. No substantial change in speeds, upload is syncing sligtly faster, 4.3meg rather than 4.1meg but that could be down to other factors.
Just need to sort out the contract extension now.
