yeah but i am not sure a week is very good is it.

In reply to a post by RobertoS:

The IP Profile used and reported appear to be at different points in the BTW system. Your actual speed looks correct for the IP Profile of 64.84Mbps you should have, so I expect that will self-correct soon.

Id like my 75/18 back soon please lol http://www.thinkbroadband.com/speedtest/button/13963...

You low upstream looks odd, as though it is a hangover from banding.

Your 67,000kbps could be banding, but more likely I think to be because interleaving has been applied. If the latter, that too will self-correct after a while. It's a suspiciously round number however.

When the fault was on the noise margin was at 6db for near enough 6Mbit up and 50Mbit down, at the time the IP profiles were at there maximum. Now the faults been fixed the noise margins have recovered but the speeds haven't so i am guessing thats why the upstream is like it is, the speed you see is what it was for a 6db noise margin.

Ill give it a week and see what happens.

The way it looks to me is that DLM had intervened, and put you on a banded profile. It may, or may not, come with interleaving and FEC turned on - I suspect we could only tell if you could see the error counts (FEC, CRC and maybe ES values)

At the time of the fault, your line reached the target 6dB SNR with a speed of 50Mbps, which was less than the top-speed of the band.

When the fault was fixed, your speed jumped to the top end of the band, for downstream at least. There is still plenty of room to go higher, as seen in the max attainable. The presence of FEC+Interleaving shouldn't matter, as you have plenty of headroom to cope with those, and still get a full 80Mbps.

So where does that get us...

Ordinarily, DLM will reduce its intervention in 3 to 4 weeks, by either reducing or removing the FEC+Interleaving setting.

However, I don't think we've seen evidence that the banding gets removed quite so easily. The whole point of banding is to cope with errors that come and go... so it might take longer for DLM to decide that it really has gone.

If you don't mind being a guinea pig, it'd certainly be interesting to see what happens to your line. However, if you want it back to normal sooner rather than later, you might need to contact your broadband supplier, and ask for an Openreach appointment for a DLM reset.

If you point out that a physical line fault has been fixed, they ought to be able to organise this without requiring you to be present.

(I agree with RobertoS that your upstream isn't quite what I'd expect with banding, so my analysis might be off a little)

this seems a bit squiffy though http://www.thinkbroadband.com/speedtest/button/13966...

Apart from the upload being a couple of Mbit down that all happened a lot, lot quicker than i expected.

That was a pretty fast response from DLM - I'm surprised too.

Interesting to see that the IP Profile value is wrong, yet your speedtests can still work at above that value. And a strange result from the TBB tester too.

I wonder how long it will take for the upstream to jump the next step?

It did another reboot in the night and my speeds are now fully recovered.
