I'm so embarrassed. How could I get that so wrong.
There's a couple of cabinets even closer on my side of the road. One's virgin and the other is openreach. I'll get a pic in the morning as it's hiding behind a tree. Quite a coincidence though.

Would suggest you redact the property information on that screenshot.

DOH! Good catch

At least you have seen some actions which might have caused your problem. In my case I am using Vodaphone FTTC and for about a year I was getting 50+ mbs but in the last 3 months it has
gradually dropped to just under 30 mbs. I do not know whether this is associated with the fact that trying to use my early Firestick with an old TV, or to Chromecast to the TV tells me that it is no longer connected to the Internet although it is connected to the router, Might the router software have been updated?

I forgot about my speedtest results:
Speedtest
Note the drop on 25th January during the period a third party were rod and roping near cab 56,I hardly had any stable connection that day and was lucky to even get a connection. Still openreach maintained there wasn't s problem.
I don't think firmware updates would be frequent enough to even be noticeable, I think the Vodafone hub has only had 2 updates in the last 12 months (?). I generally use my trusty D7000 but I've been stuck using the hub in the test socket with no phone access at all.

I wasn't expecting anything to get better - and it hasn't. After the daily resync my upload SNRm has gone to 15.3 dB and G.inp is disabled on the upload. And it's erroring constantly. It's like a final blow to me from the copper side, punishing me for my lack of faith. Soon be over though.

It says FTTP is available for next door, why don't you get on that?

Thought OP said he has an install already booked in for the 28th above?

I did, I have, and I'm looking forward to it.

Wow, double discount. By sending this directly to me do they have to honour this price?
