Phone line repaired by BT, but broadband speed still slower than normal.

BT appear to have repaired my line today, we now have a working landline again, after 4 days of no dial tone and reduced VDSL speeds. Normally I get about 32 M down and 6 up, during the line fault thus fell to 14/0.5.
It has returned to 14/5 not 30/5. I have power cycled the modem once and it is the same 14/5.
Should I just wait, or do I need to do anything else? Should I raise a ticket?
Many thanks
David

Your line is showing in sync at:
Downstream Speed 35.0 Mbps
Upstream Speed 7.1 Mbps
How's the performance now?

Thanks, I see that reported too, however reality is still only about 15/6 at present.
Should I reboot the modem and router?

A single disconnect/reconnect of the router shouldn't hurt. It's worth a go.
