In reply to a post by MrSaffron:

Low speed due to the high target noise margin

Your downstream SNR at 6.4dB with line attenuation of 54.0dB is perfectly fine. You cannot go lower than that on SNR because of long line. If you reduced snr to 3.0dB then your line will be total unstable as plusnet wouldn't put u on snr of 3 because of line attenuation is way too high.

Best way is get this cable from here: http://www.tandyonline.co.uk/electronics/telecoms-ds... (0.5m is best for reduced line attenuation) plug this cable from BT Master Socket to your router. And get this faceplate too: http://www.tandyonline.co.uk/electronics/telecoms-ds... (these are the best professional high quality faceplate will also reduced your stable snr)

I use both of it cable and faceplate and had reduced line attenuation by 2dB off and the faceplate had reduced SNR and stay stable at 3.1dB for 72 days. My line attenuation was 30.0dB before was 32.5dB

Here we go : After a bit of SNR tweaking and ringing plus net im now pretty happy in what became of that. Oh and about plusnet letting my upstream go from 448 they said it will take some speed of my download sync so i decided against that.

try tweak snr to 4dB and see what happen. The upstream uncapped won't reduced downstream (that for Annex M as a extra charge for 2.5Mbps upload)

Il give them another ring.

U better off ask here: http://community.plus.net/forum/index.php/board,3.0.... as there is plusnet staff and they will placed an order to get it uncapped upstream for you overnight. If you speak to someone over the phone (they placed an order but take 7 working days to get it uncapped upstream and often they get mix up and placed the wrong order) U can also request to get reset snr target 4dB and uncapped upstream on the forum.

Best of luck.

Just spoken to a guy from plusnet. He said it could take up to midnight on saturday. So not that bad. Hopefully that will increase the upstream.

Are they saying this saturday or a week after saturday as it sound like 9 days from today till next saturday.

This Saturday. Yep. He said it could be Friday but give it until Saturday.

Ok here is the tweak i reset the router and put in 75 in the snr window.
