I'm using ECI Telecom's B-FOCuS V-2FUb/r Rev.B

Can anything can be determined from PCP: {THBK}{P85} ?
For example if my modem is best matched for the cabinet equipment?

It's a Huawei cab

In the early days of ADSL then matching modem and cabinet tended to give better performance. However, now it is largely irrelevant. I get several Mbps more with an ECI modem on a Huawei cabinet than with an HG612.

My parents was first connected at 80/20. I can see openreach modem (unlocked) was sync at 79987k / 19999k then later plusnet changed to 40/20 and the openreach modem still sync at 79987k / 19999k but plusnet current line speed are capped at 38.4Mb.

Plusnet do not have product 40/10 anymore. But, instead they are using BT 80/20 but capped at their side at 38.4Mb.

And the relevance to my post is?

NONE

MHC, no offence but it did have significance to me. It affirmed from second source that the sync speed shown at BT speedtest will show actual sync speed regardless of PlusNet cap.

In any case, thanks for your help.

I did make changes on the phone wire, and suddenly speed is better.

Download speedachieved during the test was - 45.9 Mbps
IP Profile for your line is - 47.43 Mbps
Upstream Rate IP profile on your line is - 20 Mbps

Now I think I suspect returning line wire to another point, but I'm sure you'll correct me if I'm wrong.

1. I've opened small box fixed to my houses' outside wall.
My port is no.1. I've noticed that the blue pair of wires had about 0.5cm of wire without boot so I clipped them to be shorted and fit perfectly under fixing screw washer.

2. I have two sockets at home. First is original BT socket with one port only going to living room where phone is connected.
Second is newly installed socket by another make in utility room where I have all servers and networking equipment including VDSL modem. This one has built in filter.

The cable arrangement was:
- BT phone wire cable terminate in box outside
- CAT5e cable goes into utility room and connects to back of socket
- Face plate of the socket has a pair of orange wires going back to outside wall which are bridged with wire going to living room, where phone was connected over another standalone filter
- I've unplugged orange wire

If this is potential reason, can this be done better?

3. Above didn't matter but DLM did it's magic and after reconnection new speed appeared?

Can you post a few photos of the newly installed socket - front and back of faceplate, please?

I don't want to disconnect the setup again, if I'd remove faceplate modem will lose connection.

I've ordered new BT socket with MK2 face plate and hope it will arrive tomorrow.
So when I will be rewiring it I could take photos of old setup.

That block terminal is ancient and although your screws look ok, you can see corrosion on the end of the wire for pair 2. It should really be replaced with a BT66.

As for your pair, I cannot understand why it is being fed with an cat5 cable, and probably one that is meant for internal use. There should be a standard BT dropwire connected to this, not cat 5 cable.

Also the orange pair on that cat 5 cable is connected to the brown down lead. Clearly something funny going on here.
