not helping

thanks though! now the hard part is trying to get TalkTalk to send an Openreach engineer to figure out what the hell is going on with my line!

what router are you using?

I have the Openreach HG612 modem, not a modem/router.

Well i'm still waiting on TalkTalk which is poor!
The line dropped again earlier:

DSL synchronization status:
Up
Connection status:
Showtime
Upstream line rate (kbit/s):
6349
Downstream line rate (kbit/s):
28574
Maximum upstream rate (kbit/s):
7721
Maximum downstream rate (kbit/s):
39348
Upstream noise safety coefficient (dB):
6
Downstream noise safety coefficient (dB):
5.5
Upstream interleave depth:
133
Downstream interleave depth:
1664
Line standard:
VDSL2
Upstream line attenuation (dB):
8.2
Downstream line attenuation (dB):
19.6
Upstream output power (dBm):
3.3
Downstream output power (dBm):
13.4
Channel type:
Interleaved
DSL up-time:
0 days 9 hours 39 minutes 12 seconds

Looks like the interleaving depth has increased.

Just another update.
had a little rant on twitter and the TalkTalk Support peeps started DM'ing me and kept asking me to switch things off for 20mins to "refresh" the session/connection. Seemed like a bad idea to me but hey... So i took the opportunity this morning whilst i did that to switch over the router to the Billion 8800NL. Here are the current stats. It's worth noting that the connection has been stable since my last post/update.

Any thoughts on the above stats?
