Hi Eckiedoo

Its going well so far, Its been raining and it hasn't disconnected. I was a bit disappointed to see it disconnected last night at 2:33am and went from 4mb to 3mb. Not really sure why that's happened, maybe because its barely been connecting and connecting at 0.4mb it (DLM?) still doesn't realise the line is better yet.

I decided to open up the faceplate filter and check he hadn't reattached the bell/ring wire but he hadn't, so I rebooted the router and am now going to leave it now and see what happens. I want to get 5mb (our record is about 5.6mb or 5.8mb) and then I will be happy enough. We have been stable at that speed before. Now our line attenuation stays stable at 57db downstream too, normally we would get random disconnections and it would either go up or down by 0.5.

Yeah I have realised now why the telephone on the extension socket didn't work now when I had the faceplate off

OK thanks, I will try that.
