If anyone can help in any way, I'd be very grateful. Thank you.

I note you said nothing has changed on the PC recently, but has anything else changed (new phone or extra gadgets for instance)?

Data rate is shown as 448 kbps upstream and 1760 downstream. Noise margin is 19 dB upstream and 12 dB downstream. Attenuation is 63 dB upstream and 57 dB downstream. Can't find the stats on errors - sorry.
Hope this helps. Thanks.

Do you have any telephone extension sockets (in use or not it doesn't matter)? If so you need to try putting your router in to the test socket inside the master socket with no phone attached and look at the stats again.
Post those back and we'll advise from there.

Sorry for the delay in replying. As well as the fact that weekends are busy for me (I'm a clergyman) I'm having trouble even connecting to ADSL this morning (and have tried two different routers, with the same trouble). Whether that's due to the problem you posted on the Service Status email at 10:47 am today regarding Sheffield-based services, I don't know. In the hope that I can get a connection for a period of time to post the figures you want, here they are:
Master Socket
Speeds: downstream 1664, upstream 448.
Noise Margin: downstream 11.0, upstream 19.0.
Attenuation: downstream 59.7, upstream 31.5.
Test Socket
Speeds: downstream 1600, upstream 448.
Noise Margin: downstream 13.5, upstream 19.0.
Attenuation: downstream 59.0, upstream 31.5.
I have also re-tested here in the study on the Extension Socket (this was 30 to 60 minutes later, due to the connection problems).
Speeds: downstream 768, upstream 448.
Noise Margin: downstream 10, upstream 20.
Attenuation: downstream 56, upstream 63.
Over the weekend, I did rough speed tests at www.thinkbroadband.com/speedtest.html again and they showed downstream of around 1100 and upstream about 370.
I have just used the BT SpeedTester again and received the following results:
The configured download throughput speed and IP Profile was 135k.
Download speed was shown as 115k.
DSL connection rates were 768 downstream, 448 upstream.
BTW, our master socket is of the old type that is suitable for a BT I-Plate (or whatever it's called now). However, three years ago you sent a BT engineer to us when we had persistent problems with dropped connections, and he cut the bell wire. My understanding (please correct me if I'm wrong) is that when the bell wire has been cut, there is no point in buying an I-Plate.
Thanks for reading through this; I look forward to your thoughts.
Kind regards,
Dave Faulkner

Can you confirm that when you have the router plugged in to the filter in the study, you still have a filter on the phone in the main socket as well.
Have you got any other phone extensions?

Speeds: downstream 160, upstream 448
Noise Margin: downstream 18.0, upstream 18.0
Attenuation: downstream 57.8, upstream 31.5.
To answer your query about filters, every socket in the house has microfilters fitted. I have also periodically changed them. The main cordless phone is plugged into the study socket, and our other two cordless phones as simply plugged into the mains. Sky is plugged into the master socket. However, our slow speeds predate our Sky installation.
