Had Plusnet fibre installed yesterday. New PN Technicolor router and standard BT modem. No problems except one. Speeds were fine if connecting to router direct with cable or WiFi. However there was a dramatic loss of download speed (50+ to 3) when connecting via 500AV homeplugs. Spoke to Solwise who supplied the plugs. Very helpful. They suggested changing the power supply unit to the modem as the ones supplied by BT were rubbish and induced a lot of noise on the line. Followed his advice and BINGO, dramatic improvement. Speeds on Homeplug now 40+. Hope this might be of some help to others and that BT might take note.
