Speed slow to pick up after line fault


[link to this post] 		 
Two or three years back, I had a problem with my phone line. It was promptly fixed, but internet speed was very slow. I phoned my ISP (F2S) who said it usually takes a few days to "settle". Sure enough, proper speed steadily returned over the next few days.

Over Christmas / New Yr we just had our line knocked out again, due to high winds. Again a fast repair, and again the speed has started slow (0.1Mbps) yesterday, picking up a little today (0.6Mbps). It should get back up to somewhere between 1.5 & 2.0 if the same thing happens again (we live in rural NW Wales).

Can anyone explain why the slow return to full speed?

It's a bit of a read, but this should explain most of it,
