Plus net don't do LLU do they? If I put my Plusnet phone number in it brings back my IP profile.

Correct, they don't. But the poster I replied to gave no indication of their ISP so I have the most common explanation. With an opening "If" .

I suspect I'm going to have to buy a 2700HGV and go over there myself...

The 2704n has one of the latest Broadcom chipsets and is extremely good on the ADSL side. I doubt that a 2700HGV will do any better or perhaps not as well.
The same can't be said of the Router side though.
If you want more detailed stats login with http://192.169.1.254/expert_user.html

If the connection has dropped a few times, there is probably something else going on. I'd suggest you get your friend to start a thread on Plusnet's forum and post the stats from the Helpdesk page and the detailed page logging in as mentioned above. Remember to remove serial numbers, usernames, MAC addresses and SSIDs from such posts.

I also suggest that you use the BTW Performance Test directly (that's a live link, as mentioned by Roberto) rather than some other site that only redirects a user to part of the BT Tester.

In reply to a post by crule:

I am not with a LLU isp but with BT. I have never been able to get any information from this test
If I subscribed to conspiracy theories i would think they were out to get me!

If your BB is with BT you should raise it with them. If it's with Plusnet, then start a thread on Plusnet's forum so that one of the CRT reps can take it up with BTw.

I've just managed to find the link jelv gave elsewhere to running the "old style" BT Wholesale test directly. It works fine and doesn't have all the opening screen garbage.

http://www.speedtest.btwholesale.com/PerformanceTest...

It's also listed in the stickied ADSL Speed Faults thread on Plusnet's ADSL board.

Which is where jelv copied it from!

And told me at the time. Whereupon I thought: "That's all right then, I can remember that without bookmark/favourite recording it".

Which resulted in "Fail!"
