Okay thanks.

Plusnet were fine with me cancelling; I'll sort out an order with Sky tonight.

I'm not sure exactly what you were asking about the line, as the others have (on the face of it) answered your question, but perhaps not fully.

Sky require you to take their LLU line rental. Not simply "connect to their kit", as that would happen even if you didn't have LLU line rental. It makes migrating out again slightly trickier as it will no longer be recognised as a "BT line".

......only because the only checker is BT. Perhaps it is time for an "independent" checker?

In reply to a post by spann:

I've monitored my Noise Margin (constant at 12dB) and packet loss (constant at zero) as one engineer told me it was definitely REIN, but here's a graph of my speed over a 45 minute period last night:
.....

Noise Margin, Attenuation etc all stayed constant while my throughput was doing the above.

How are you measuring Noise Margin and Attenuation?

Cheers!

A program Called Routerstats Hub, which just pulls the info from the troubleshooting page on the hub.

For those who are interested, I've attached my speed tests and SNR for today:

The last test on the automated test comes in around 3, as you can see 40 mins later the one done on Think's test is showing far stronger, but extremely inconsistent speed.

Ah.

My error. I was thinking of the Openreach VDSL modem (which I have) which does not have any easily accessible stats. I now realise that a HH5 which besides it all being in one box, is a little more friendly in providing stats data.

Thanks. I'm just down the road from on the Hawarden exchange.

Cheers!

Hi all.

Switched to Sky yesterday, and after a couple of hours of teething problems I'm seeing this almost constantly:

Looks like the problem is with BT's equipment after all!
