Looks good but I am still only getting 0.8Mb download is this a PNet issue?

Please find the 'current speed' using the link below - you will be prompted to logon to your PlusNet account.
Also, please run a full BTw Speed test, using the FURTHER DIAGNOSTICS - ignore all the stuff in red (do not restart your router).
In another browser tab, login into the Plusnet user portal BEFORE clicking the fault & ticket links

Estimated line speed:
There's no speed estimate currently held on your account.
Current line speed:
2.9 Mb
BTw basic speed test shows 0.8 mb down but advanced test shows 2.04Mb down ?
Edit to I've fixed the problem, just needed to reboot the router , as advised by Pnet Chat. I was avoiding trying this because I now that this often has a negative effect on speed but in this case was obviously the right thing to do.

Just thought I would give a quick update on our BT Openreach / Plusnet woes........
So our line was disconnected by a damaged aerial line on 25th January, was finally reconnected on 26th February.
Speed was really low this got sorted on 28th February so we thought our problems were over
How wrong!!
About a Month ago BT Openreach decide to "upgrade" the aerial cable to our area, so far we have:
been disconnected multiple times and had to get engineers out to repair.
had cables left in a field and sheep continualy pulled them out of the junction box that was lying in a hedge, full of water.
and now for the last 3 days we have someone elses phone number, and presumably someone else has ours.
The things that I have learned with all of this is that all we can do in these situations is
1. report to Plusnet.
2. pray that an engineer will turn up sometime. (Maybe a few days / a couple of Months or not at all).
3. once repaired hope that another engineer doesn't turn up and break it again.
4. don't expect to get any accurate or meaningful information from Plusnet.

Sadly there are far too many opportunities for this kind of situation to go wrong. Retail ISPs, BTw, BTOpenreach, their sub contractors and then plain human error when they do get someone on the ground.
Sadly the end person does not own responsibility for the full resolution of the issue, all too often it's passed all the way back to the retail ISP/CP.
BTOR is not fit for purpose.
How is this sad tale progressing?
