someone else had the same issue as me, they lived really close to the fibre cabinet with a really good line but the sync speed was no where near 80 mbps. so, they had open-reach guy come in and change their line over to another spare port in the fibre cabinet. And the issue was solved for them.
so, I also called my provider and asked for a check. Open-reach guy comes, checks the speed at fibre cabinet and everything is fine. then checks the speed at my master-socket and I'm only getting around 67mbps. So I tell him about switching my line over to new port. he goes back to the fibre cabinet and 30 mins later I'm syncing at 77mbps. here are my new dsl stats.

Only problem now is ping:
when the guy first came in to checked the speed at master socket my speed jumped from 57mbps to 67 mbps. and ping droped from around 30ms to 10ms. (no idea how that happened. I think when he plugged in his meter, DLM just went away; I started getting the max possible speed which was 67mbps. also Interleaving went away which cause to ping to drop back to 10 ms.)
but when he switched my line to a different port at fibre cabinet, ping went form 10 ms to 19 ms. (DLM probably applied Interleaving to my line)
also my ping is not just high it's not even stable, in game it does not feel responsive. game play is smooth but everything is delayed. I kill the guy, game stutters for a bit and kill is registered 2 seconds later. In game ping this 40 to 50 ms which is decent, game lags because ping is not stable. When DLM went away for abit, ping was perfect and really responsive.
what's causing the high/unstable ping? is it the DLM?
Some people saying that I should get get rid of ISP provided router and get a proper router. I have ee router which has build in modem for VDLS fiber, do I have to get a separate modem as well. Or can I just get a good modem for reliable speed and ping and leave the routing tasks for ee router?
