@Dan_the_Van It could be overnight maintenance, certainly, but the very low data rate and high SNR point me towards a problem somewhere in the OR infrastructure. I could be wrong, of course.

@jab1 Looks like the line is banded to me, which would explain the high snr margin. There are a number of resyncs at 23.830 Mbps then more recently a couple more at a slightly higher speed of 24.968 Mbps so the DLM has changed the cap but there must be some problem with the line. With the banding removed the speed would be a lot higher, possibly as high as 40Mbps
I would have thought Plusnet should have spotted that, but as a fault has already been reported I will leave them to it.

@willcutforth have you seen the WAN log in post #8, and the following comments? Despite earlier claims that 'there was nothing wrong', there obviously is something glaringly wrong.

In the days of a blue sky and green grass we could expect the results of a GEA test as evidence of the connection status to be posted.
But now it is a barren landscape no such information is provided.

Agreed, @Dan_the_Van . We used to get GEA test results AND the RADIUS logs to explain what was happening, but they are almost as rare as hens teeth these days - I wonder why?

@jab1 Someone did an SNR reset on the account earlier so just wanted to see how it was playing out. Can get some logs, GEA test if you want?

Wasn't aware of that, Will - there is no record in this topic.
A RADIUS log would be interesting, as would the GEA test.

Can't see any difference at my end as user.
Download 21.88, upload 7.96
TAP1 suggests line max is 24.17, sure it was ~ 32 at the start of the year, it certainly was back last September.

@dougjbarnes1 The SNR reset will have achieved nothing, as I suspected. This needs proper Openreach investigation.
EDIT: Can you please post a screenshot of https://www.broadbandchecker.btwholesale.com/#/ADSL -ensuring your phone number is obscured?
