However the last couple of days things have gotten so bad it is impossible to use during peak hours casually. Now I get around 5Mbps during the day off peak time and at night off peak time. The speeds I get during peak time are slower now ranging from under 1Mbps to and 2ish at most.
peak time speed test:
peak time BT wholesale speed test: down -1.33 up- 4.95 ping -71
down - 1.07 up - 2.26 ping - 135
down - 1.50 up - 5.00 ping - 286
Stats/other info
Exchange: glenrothes north
Router: technicolor Fttc
connection tests ran on : wired ethernet
sync speed: 40mb
normal speed before problems : around 40mb give or take 1 or 2 mb
Does it dc alot: no, before and now are stable in that regard
perhaps your router is the problem? - no it is not unless consistent speed drops in relation to time of day is a 'router' problem
My thoughts are it is either an exchange problem or plusnet. Either traffic management, some sort of balance problem at the exchange or congestion none of which i can tell for my self.
I have raised a fault with plusnet, however thought i would post here incase any help that I can do or anything that will help prove my point etc is available that the knowledgeable folk here can point me to.

I've gone through the process, only to be told by Plusnet that they now need to send an engineer out to my house! Its so obviously nothing to do with my connection (and is an exchange issue) but apparently BT wont check out their exchange before things are ruled out at the customer home?
I have no issue with this, except I am away for the next week.
I would like to think this would be solved by then if somebody else were to raise a fault. You're that man!

So far:
We are currently performing tests on your broadband service which will allow us to investigate the problem you've reported.
Please be aware if this is a new fault that this can take up to 24 hours.
We'll contact you as soon as we have more information and let you know what happens next.

Your support request has been escalated to the correct team for review.

Will keep you updated in this thread. Lee. Yeah seems considering us both in the same area(different sides of gtown) with pretty much the exact same problem that has a relationship to time in regards to donwstream and upstream speed - that the problem lies anywhere from exchange(my bet) to gateway most likely and less so end user to exchange. Though I'm not qualified in anyway lol. ken what I mean like
This is my purpose! As long as its not in the evenings or early mornings I'm working lol

All red means you either have the wrong IP address set in the BQM tool, or your router is not configured to receive and process ping requests. Try again!

I hope you delete your dead ones ;). Otherwise some other person may wonder what the Ping is.
