So an incoming call *shouldn�t* be an issue with no filter in place as you have it at present ....

.... but I wonder, might you try fitting a decent filter and using a shop bought RJ11 to RJ11 cable and run with it connected like that for a few days ?

I�m sure you�ll say that you don�t use it as a phone line, but it still gets rung into sporadically.... this might be injecting errors and causing the oddness you are experiencing ?

printed off for future reference as we now seem to be into one of this traits "hibernation" periods. Not a sausage for several days!

The BT master socket has a built in filter (the linesman changed the whole socket just in case, its one of the latest with no screws to fix the faceplate- just simple side clips that are pretty [censored]- too much weight on the two leads can pull the faceplate and unclip it!! It also has flick over clips to hold the incoming wires- no need for the BT chrome tool to terminate connections- linesman wasn't impressed by either "advance" in the product!

RJ11 leads are awash here at the moment, SKY sent one out special before the BT appointment, seemed pointless as the Sky operative also sent a new router which also had a new lead as well.............................!

OK, your description seemed to imply you were running with no filters in place.

You have a 40 Mbps sync, which means speed test maximum MUST be 38 Mbps so if a test is showing 100 Mbps it is wrong.

What is showing the 10 to 15 normal speed as the speed test you did showed a very good speed

A school will usually not be on a Sky fibre service so their usage should not affect you

Here's a video of a speedtest running to show you what I was on about. Wait for the upload speed- in a previous test it bounced off 150meg! (Done on desktop via 500mbps powerline plugs back to the sky router.)

Currently there has been no instances of the lag-sleep problem!!
