So wholesale line rental prices are dropping, yet plusnet ( and all the others) are still charging a vast sum for basic line rental. However if you toook the Line rental saver option you used to be able to save a bit of money. However now the so called line rental saver offers an insulting discount of a miserly £18 over 12 months, why bother?
I think a truer comparison would come from consideration of the annual discount rate required to commute that £204 paid in £17 monthly installments to £186. You may be surprised!
No one has to agree with my opinion, but in the time I have left a miracle would be nice.
I have renewed mine . Why simple £185. in a savings account will get you what ?. Best ISA might give 2%. £185 at 2% = £3.70 pa Nothing like the £18.00 pa saved
only from next April. It's easier to negotiate a better discount having your line rental with PN so if you're going to do that then taking the LRS is a sensible option.

I would leave the broadband with Plusnet and overall there will be a significant saving unless Plusnet come up with a very good deal and the saving - excluding any special deals - would be over £6 per month or £4.50 with LRS as I wouldn't need anytime calls due to their very low call charges
Remove the £6 'anytime calls' from the Plusnet package and use someone like 'freevoipdeal' (if you're able to use VOIP in place of PSTN tlephone) and a modest discount might make Plusnet line rental the better deal.
