Last couple of days - Been getting frequent disconnections / dropped internet - usually very short outage had 4/5 disconnections yesterday - this afternoon seem to have suffered a longer outage - refer F8lure graph - i'm on a dynamic ip which has traditionally been very sticky however i'm getting frequent ip addy changes
Can someone do a check on my line to confirm the dropped connections as my line check on fast.com is showing 12mb d/l
while speedtest.net is showing 12.9 d/l and 14.3 u/l clearly an issue while BT wholesale test is now giving me a profile of 13.6mb !! - this is a considerable drop since this morning refer attachments on my post earlier today

further info - please find attached router stats taken a few min ago
there is something clearly wrong with my connection/line
SNR for u/l and d/l have previously be in region of 6.0 or less - and to pre-empt the usual script questions - connection to router/modem is via ethernet and the hub is still connected to the test socket ( where it has been for the last 4 + years )
And no the contractors from earlier today have not yet hooked up the new lines - they are only at the stage of putting the conduit in the pavement.

Fault reported on phoneline ( and confirmed via online test) lets see if that fixes my [-Censored-] d/l speeds in the mentioned 1-3 days - currently 12mb d/l on a 80/20 service

Good morning @moansalot I can see since this an external fault has been reported on your account here.

Thanks - will openreach intervention ( oh there is a van across the street right now - but not holding my breath.
FYI there appears to be an issue with your speed checker on my account it's currently reporting my current speed as 54mb d/l it's actually about 12-13mb ☹️

I have reported a phone line fault which has been confirmed - should I wait until that is resolved ( a very noisy line) then report a b/b fault speed fault - if the phone issue does not fix the issue or go straight ahead and report the speed fault also

Thanks for getting back to us @moansalot
I'd recommend waiting until the problem with your phone's fixed

HI - after a second visit mid/late afternoon by OR technician to my street cabinet ( they park across the street) I briefly had a quieter line and my b/b speeds improved from the low of 12 m/b d/l. to briefly circa 50mb level
However this morning i once again am experiencing a noisy line and frequent disconnects with lowered speed - while I have a connection of sorts I fired up Fast.com - which just showed my connection as 12mb d/l - though few min later with following details it's now 21mb !!
Snr are all over the place down been as low as -5.7 and up to fig's below
Starting to regret my hub nickname - it's proving to be correct
