Line Reset

Hi

Recently joined plusnet (from virgin media) i'm on the unlimited fibre extra package with phone. I've had my router setup for a week now but my speeds are not what i was expecting currently between 27mb and 32mb. I realise that during the first 10 days the line speeds will vary as it tests the line, but during the first few hours of the router being powered on we suffered power cuts on and off for around an hour or two (not a common occurrence) and I feel this may have had an affect on the setup process of my line. I also had to move the router today to its new location so current uptime has reset to 0 in the attached image.

Please see the below test reports, the connection has been very stable with no drop outs, I am connected to my BT MK2 NT5e Master socket with no extensions, i have zero experience with ASDL/VDSL as I have always been with Virgin (12 years) and only recently decided to leave.bt wholesale checker.pngplusnet bt checker.pngplusnet estimates.pngrouter stats.png

Re: Line Reset

Hi,

 

I have replied to the support ticket with available dates for engineer visit.

I'm sure my IP profile will need just need a reset at exchange due to the power cuts I experienced, is this something that can be done before an engineer is sent?

Re: Line Reset

Hi @NoTMucH,

 

Thank you for confirming this, I've replied to the ticket here.

 

In terms of the IP profile reset I'm afraid that this isn't something that we can do remotely for fibre broadband connections so this would need to be carried out by the engineer.
