Dear Plusnet support,
I am suddenly experiencing some speed issues with my fibre broadband.
I had a stable connection at max attainable rate since 29 March, then on 15 May the modem disconnected and reconnected with much lower Down Rate. I noticed it only today.
I tried to disconnect and reconnect, but no difference.
Only after powering off the modem completely, and rebooting it, it synced again at the usual rate.
Snippet of the WAN logs below.

However, the speed (especially download) is extremely low.

Is there any problem with the network in my area, maybe?
Thanks and regards
