**Update**

Spent all day yesterday with Router plugged into test socket with no change. Stayed at 64Kbps up and somewhere around 1.8Mb/s down. Been out all day today so don't know what speed I was connected to but here is something interesting.

Just got around to performing a quiet line test (couldn't do it before because being in the 21st Century and all, I didn't have a wired analogue phone!)

No noise at all to start with. Then all of a sudden I started to hear noise on the line which ended up getting quite loud with lots of crackles. Then it stopped. Have just plugged my router back in and performed the quiet line test again. Line is quiet and I am getting 2,112 down and 448 up!!!

Will continue to monitor but looks like an intermittent fault on the line which will be enough for me to contact Line Faults and get them to take a look.

Current Stats are:
