Poor speed + disconnects again.

Message contains an attachment

Hello again.

I'm getting terrible speeds again, not close to what I'm paying for.

  • Product: Unlimited Fibre Extra
  • Estimated Download Range: 40 - 57Mbps
  • Estimated Upload Range: 7 - 12Mbps
  • Minimum Guaranteed Speed: 35.3Mbps
  • Current Line Speed (Download): 12.3Mbps

It's usually around 50mbps. This happens every month or so. I get disconnects, speed lowers rinse / repeat.
I've attached the BT wholesale checker. 

Really, really fed up here.

Any help would be very much appreciated

tested wired, into the test socket

Normally, my response to a BTw test result like this would be:Report a fault at: https://faults.plus.net , but if you want someone to look at it - not PN Help Team as they work to a script - try this, ignoring the test you have already completed:

For Community members to be able to help, information from these two sites, as screenshots:-

BT Broadband(obscuring your phone number) and BTW Performance Tester - Over a wired (ethernet) connection, please report the 'ADDITIONAL DIAGNOSTICS', and sight of the HELP DESK tab from your Hub would be a start.

It may also be a good idea to report the results of a Quiet Line Test - dial 17070 option 2 from a (preferably corded) phone. After the confirmation of your phone number, there should be total silence apart from the regular 'Quiet Line Test' announcement. Any other noise - report a PHONE fault first.

Re: Poor speed + disconnects again.

Do you have a static ip?

 

The sync speeds seem ok, its the current line speed on the PN side that is low, suggesting a stuck or wrong profile in the PN system.

Hi there, I've just been looking into this for you and tests are showing signs of a line fault (impairment in copper joint) so we'll need to arrange an engineer visit with you. I've added a ticket to your account with more information here: https://www.plus.net/wizard/?p=view_question&id=222611406

 

Please let me know when you've responded and I'll get that booked in for you.

It's been happening on and off for 3 years so I'm not going to hold my breath! 
Thanks for your help though. 
I'll update if it gets resolved.
