I'm getting the same problems, had the free upgrade and getting connection problems, seems more stable when I changed from 6db to 9db but still getting problems. I get reconnected back to the exchange but wont go further to get DNS/IP etc from ISP, takes a few rooter reboots to get a working connection. Was pretty stable before all this. I'm not bothered about the extra speed I just want a stable line that dont drop. I'm using a Netgear DG834GT router with old firmware.

No, it's classed as being on WBC.

So could my ISP change me from ADSL2+ to an ADSL1 profile? They had me on that before this upgrade and connection was fine

Yea i think some got changed over on the 28th, then had the problems at the weekend which it seems arent related to the changeover, just coincidence

They could if they agreed so. Indeed ADSL2+ will downgrade to ADSL if it finds line unstable.

But you might be able to do it yourself via the router. You certainly can with the DG834G v4 (Broadcom chipset), but I don't know the DG834G v5 (Conexant chipset).

Look under the Basic or ADSL Settings for an ADSL Mode field. Failing that you may be able to get at it via TELNET as per this page: http://www.kitz.co.uk/routers/netgeardg834_interleav... . I don't know the BusyBox command for the V5 but for the V4 it is
'adslctl configure --mod d (or it might be 1)'.
Or try 'adsl help'.

But post your router stats (Show Stats) anyway; we may be able to see something.

Well, OP did say he was on 21CN and I took his word for it (until proved otherwise).
