Was at 1MB/s until 21:00 when the line just randomly dropped and reconnected at less than half that speed. Can't even watch a short 5 minute Youtube video without sitting and waiting for it to buffer for 10 mins.
Phone line is quiet and nothing has changed on my end.

Then report a Broadband fault, as advised about a month ago.

Assuming your landline is with Plusnet, use a mobile to text to 07800 008121: PHONE <landline>
If landline is with BT, text to 61998: PHONE <landline>
Where <landline> is the number of phone line you want testing. If a landline fault is found it should be actioned automatically.

@jab1 Which was done and nothing came of it. No reply, nothing. World class customer service. eh?
Is this acceptable in 2023?
You can''t even open a vast majority of websites, let alone watch any of the streaming services we PAY FOR.

@Azagoth From that data, you definitely have an issue -Downstream SNR of 15.5dB indicates the DLM is struggling to maintain an acceptable level.
Do you not have the option of FTTC?
