A quick bump on my thread after having a surprising split second power outage.
At about 17:00 hours, the power went off and came back on within about 15 seconds.
I was sat watching a youtube video and once power had came back on I fired up VNC viewer to check out DSLstats after the router had reconnected.
To my surprise, the connection was reading 80,000kbps down and 20,000kbps up with health SNR readings of 6db up and down. Attainable speeds were reading at ~86,000kbps and ~25,000kbps respectively.
I've never seen these connection speeds since the line was installed. Unfortunately this was short lived. On wondering away from my desk for a few minutes, I came back to find that DSLstats reporting the typical ~56,000kbps / ~12,000kbps connection stats (same SNR figures of ~6db and attainable figures slightly hire than actual connection).
I'm guessing that the massive drop back down is crosstalk at the ECI cabinet kicking in after neighbouring lines have re-connected. If that is the case, I'm slightly annoyed at the large drop off on my line as a result. While I've lived with the connection for 8 months (which has been pretty much stable all the way through) I've paid IDnet for a full year up front for the 80/20 package.
I've fired off a support ticket to IDnet a few moments ago to get them to check their records to see the connection and take a look at what might be happening with line.
