Hi Rick , just my tuppence worth , I was with bt for years til I went to Sky and my crossover speeds were horrendous until Sky discovered "ghost packets" on the line from when bt were upgrading , I had to ask bt to remove/clean up these spooky said packets then speed increased 10 fold , just another idea to throw in the mix , might be worth asking them to check fella ?

Deactivated.
Save settings.
Force renegotiation -

Is there a connection-test/diagnostics routine ?
Probably under maintenance tab.
Run it.
Report results, & any errors.
Also run a 3rd party
speed test.

Hi Rick, from what you've posted this looks like a BT fault, I don't think there is anything you can do. There seems to be a lot of reports of the 2+ upgrade screwing speeds for folks. A mate of mine always had 2+ and his business was 500m from the exchange, it took a year for bt to acknowledge the fault and they reprovisioned the service on a different line and all was good again. If you can get out of your contract do, and move to anyone who doesn't use bt kit, e.g. O2 or BEunlimited
