yes I meant escalation at the CP level, openreach can of course disagree with the CP on whats worth escalating.

From my experience, they quite often do. It's worse when they don't communicate it properly. Support sends the OR engineer, OR engineer goes to start a job and calls BTW for some information. BTW tells him not to carry out the work. Everyone shrugs their shoulders for different reasons and nothing gets done.

This is why I so hoped our new location would be Virgin covered, because it's no longer under the thumb of BTW. Though I suppose without any competition, it creates another tyrant anyways.

@Newtronstar

Ok thank you.

Good news the migration back to EE has gone smoothly not sure of the time it became active because I unplugged VF's modem/router just before 00:00 last night.

And even better news the DSL connection has not dropped out once except for one drop when changing over from BrightBox2 to 8800NL, would have had 4 - 6 DSL dropouts from 5 - 7pm with VF & that HHG2500.

Conclusion Vodafone's network or hardware (HHG2500) was unreliable on my circuit had they given me the username & password to test the 8800NL this issue could of been resolved easily without wasting my time & 2 Openreach Engineers time it's been a strange BroadBand experience.

That's very good news.  :)

I'm pleased to know that you now have a stable service, once again.

Excellent news, NewtronStar!

I presume the switchover included a lovely DLM reset?  That'll clear the Vodafone-related damage and, after a week or so, you should get G.INP back on your line.

Phew :)

Thanks displaced TBH I don't know when G.INP will arrive back it took 11 days on the first ISP DLM reset yet it never returned after a DLM reset by OR, I'm just very happy to see a stable line again  :)

Guess whose circuit I have been monitoring (on & off) since around 1655 hours, yesterday?  ;)

I am expecting some DLM intervention, either tonight or early tomorrow.

If EE could put it's members on the DLM speed profile of 2880 then I would get away with DLM intervention unfortunately we are put on the DLM standard profile 1440 so this line will be heading towards an increase of interleaving on the downstream from current depth of 19 to 600 or above this line is to long and noisy.

Some CPs/ISPs will make a request (on their EUs' behalf) for a change in the DLM profile. I wonder if EE would be willing to request a "standard" to a "speed" profile adjustment for you?

Indeed Vodafone tech2 were able moved me from DLM standard to stable during their diagnostic stage which was wrong all that did was to band my line very quickly.

How does one find out which DLM profile is being used by your ISP the last time I called EE 20 months ago they could not give me the answer

I am not sure. Perhaps Tony (tbailey2) might be able to assist?  :-\
