Normally the downstream and upstream SNMR are between 5.4 and 6.4. The last time I had an issue the SNMR for downstream went as low as 0.9! Back then I was on 69mbps when I rebooted the router the next day the speed plummeted to 56mbps to bring the SNMR to 6 again BT OR confirmed there was a fault with the Broadband and it was fixed at the cabinet (I think). I believe I have been on fastpath since OR came last and did a full DLM reset he was a great engineer and showed me the results on his machine.
I have all the graphs and stats saved from 3rd June to present if you wanted to see any more info?
I have my Hg612 modem connected into the test socket using a 0.5m shielded twisted pair patch cable. When OR were here last I got upgraded to the latest 5C master socket but I found when I was connected though the filtered faceplate I was getting lower speeds and worse SNMR even after disconnecting the extension wireing hence I have left it connected to the test socket.
Edit just seen Black sheep's reply the last time OR were out he tuned his radio to 612Khz AM on the drive and the further away we got from the house it got quieter and he said it is REIN looks like it is back
. We have overhead cables to the pole and then a thick cable goes to the next pole down the street though trees which in the past has also caused issues.
