@hivizdave Welcome to the forums.
Have you plugged your router directly into the master Socket behind the NTE5c ? If not do so for awhile, this will isolate it from any internal wiring issues.
Are the 4 Mb speeds via a wired or Wi-Fi connections? Wi-Fi can vary a great deal depending on outside factors for which PlusNet have no control. The Speed Test must be done via a wired connection.
Doing a trace route will have no impact on your speed.
