Hi Tristan,
I have been looking through your latest stats & a few of them look "strange" when compared against any other VDSL2 stats that I have looked at over almost a year now.
Retrain Reason 2 - usual reason for an "on the fly" resync.
Medley Phase (Final) Band Plan
US: (0,95)
DS: (32,859) (1216,1963) (2792,3959) That suggests that after training up from the reboot, all 3 downstream bands are available for bit-loading.
That is surprising, as connections with such high attenuation as yours simply do not show all 3 bands as being available at Medley Phase.
e.g. My connection is quite poor for VDSL2, but much better than yours.
However, I still can't use all the bands at Medley Phase:-
Medley Phase (Final) Band Plan
US: (0,95) (868,1207)
DS: (32,859) (1216,1963)
DS Attainable Rate 2368 Kbps - The lowest I have seen on a VDSL2 connection.
Sync speed 410 Kbps - By far the lowest I have seen & less than 1/5 your Attainable Rate.
SNRM 19.5 dB - suggests your connection is able to achieve a higher sync speed, perhaps approaching the 2368 Kbps.
Really high attenuation, also confirmed in the Hlog graph.
Available seconds (AS:) 16949 (around 4.7 hours) matches the reported Since Link time = 4 hours 42 min 27 sec, so O.K.
UnAvailable seconds (UAS:) 10283 10283 - The highest I have seen on ANY connection.
Serious Error Seconds (SES:) 423 0 - Looks quite high.
Error Seconds (ES:) 32922 4787 - Not sure where that is from. Adding DS SES, UAS & AS together only comes to
27655.
Pwr(dBm): 1.5 10.4 - DS at 1.5 looks really low. Mine is 12.4, roughly double my US of 6.3.
Interleaving (D:) 7 1 - Really low, almost OFF, suggesting a really
stable connection.
As you appear to be a Linux user, you are unable to monitor & graph your ongoing stats 24/7 using our scripts, so we are unable to see what happens between midnight & 5am.
However, Eric (Roseway) has been developing Windows & Linux versions of a monitoring program that you may be able to leave running overnight, auto-generating snapshot graphs at intervals. This may yield SOME clues?

Unfortunately, I don’t know what all that means in terms of faults.
I would be very tempted though to try another unlocked modem (just to eliminate hardware issues & see if the same “strange” data is obtained).
FWIW, I have attached Windows versions of your snapshot graphs, using the data from your most recent log file.
Cheers,
Paul.
EDIT:
Edited the comment about Retrain Reason.
Retrain Reason 2 is usually from an "on the fly" DLM initiated resync, & possibly a resync caused by a profile change.
Retrain Reason 0 is usually from a reboot.
