I fail to understand how you claim that my speed performance meets the guaranteed speed of fibre extra more like unlimited fibre speed. Have you activated my upgrade to Fibre extra?
see below
Download speed achieved during the test was 26.66 Mbps
For your connection, the acceptable range of speeds is 20.5-29.28 Mbps
Your DSL Connection Rate: 0 Mbps(DOWN-STREAM),0 Mbps(UP-STREAM)
I do have a open ticket but you appear to have ignored it for 7 days now.
Please advise
Fixed! Go to the fix.

Shouldn’t this be fibre extra speed
For your connection, the acceptable range of speeds is 40-58.68 Mbps
I think there maybe error or two somewhere over the rainbow

Is your line capable of higher speeds? Enter your number and post the results in https://www.broadbandchecker.btwholesale.com/#/ADSL
Once you have done that log into the router, go to the Advanced tab, then Troubleshooting and post the results of the Help Desk tab.
You will then be able to see if it has been upgraded, or if there is an issue.

FTTP is not available.
For all ADSL and WBC Fibre to the Cabinet (VDSL or G.fast) services, the stable line rate will be determined during the first 10 days of service usage.
Actual speeds experienced by end users and quoted by CPs will be lower due to a number of factors within and external to BT's network, Communication Providers' networks and within customer premises.
The Stop Sale date for IPstream is from 30 Nov 2012. the Formal Retirement date for IPstream is from 30 Jun 2014.
If you decide to place an order for a WBC fibre product, an appointment may be required for an engineer to visit the end user's premises to supply the service
In order to be eligible for handback, downstream speed should be less than Downstream Handback Threshold values.
Thank you for your interest

Well that is half of the information, but it does show your line is capable of running higher speeds, but is only running at:
Max Observed Downstream Speed 31.79
Max Observed Upstream Speed 8.97
This suggests to me that your internal wiring is slowing things down, especially as you have only revently updated from ADSL. When FTTC was first rolled out, Openreach would fit a filtered Master Sockect, and the modem/router needed to be plugged into it. More recently ISP's just send out the router for self install, and Openreach are only called if there are speed issues reported.
Currently Openreach will not enter peoples homes, so your only option is to locate the Master Socket, remove the front two screws and locate the test socket and plug your router there.
Before you do, get a copy of the Help Desk Page and do the same after, you should see a difference in your max attainable speeds. Sync speeds will take a few days to change.

Hi
I did all that two weeks ago and left it plug into the test socket for at least a week and there was no real sign of improvement. i did raise a ticket with Plusnet and i raised another after they sent me a new router (same model). unfortunately the new router won't let me past the plusnet login page on the browser.
I am working from home so really can't afford to keep switching routers etc and losing downtime.
Thanks

Without looking at the Help Desk page Attainable speeds, you will need to leave it in the test socket for longer.
Not sure what you mean by same modem - if they sent you a new Hub One, then you don't need a modem.
Some browsers do seem to have problems logging in, have you tried another, idealy from a Windows PC/Laptop?
Openreach will not be visiting homes until at least June, if you want to just wait for an engineer just let me know.
