Roll back circa a month, I had an issue on my line and an engineer visited and directly wired my line, bypassing a junction box that had corroded.
This was when I was on a 40/10 connection. As soon as the engineer had finished, my line sat at 39999/9999 for 17 days. I also at the time of his visit asked what my line was capable of receiving, that was 60mbps down, matching what my DSL-AC68U was reporting.
As such, I upgraded my package to Plusnet fibre extra (80/20), that went live last Monday - as soon as the switch over happened, my line speed decreased / despite my router still reporting ~60mbps.
I did a bit of research, and it led me to the conclusion that my DSL-AC68U was not compatible with G.INP, hence purchased a HG612 router to run in bridge.
Unfortunately, it has not had the desired outcome, my attainable rate is showing as ~40mbps. I then reverted back to my DSL-AC68U, and the max down rate reports 60mbps, albeit the connection will not sync any faster than ~43mbps, as reported below / other stats.
I note, I can adjust the SNR on my AC68U and noted it was set to 3 SNR - if I change it to 6 SNR (HG612 value) I then get max of 53mbps attainable, albeit connection still reporting ~43mbps.
I've raised a ticket with PlusNet, albeit seems to have just sat there unactioned/when I called advised an engineer would investigate.
With that said, can anyone shed some light on this - my current HG612 stats as follows:
