Unless you are on a fixed IP address the current Plusnet system no longer sets a profile on your line. You are unlikely to get a fault looked at at the moment unless your download speed falls below the minimum guaranteed rate.

Ironically the village had a power cut this morning and when it came back my speed had gone back to 35mbps (will check again when I get home tonight) so looks like the green box may have reset itself.

Or it might have been that your hub picked up a different IP address when it rebooted.

Hi Baldrick1, can I just confirm - if you have a fixed IP address then PN set the line profile? Reason I ask - we’ve been on a fixed ip address ever since we joined PN around 6 years ago, never really noticed anything amiss (clear line, less than 50 yards from the cabinet, and a profile of 74.1) but recently have noticed a little drop in download speeds and a retrain reason 1 appear on the OR modem stats . Could this be due to the fixed ip profile? Thanks and apologies for using this thread for my own query.

No Plusnet no longer deliberately set the profile, It should be set clear of your maximum speed and the control be with the BT infrastructure.
It's presence is purely historical as Plusnet used to control the profile then all the dynamic addresses were transferred to a new system without this capability but the fixed IP addresses were left on the legacy system.
I mentioned it as it's not unknown for gremlins to get in and screw up this unused setting. However it's unlikely that a small.drop is being caused by this. It wouldn't cause a retrain. With more people taking up broadband and more streaming these days there is a general slow down affecting us all.
