HI all, been going around the houses with PN and looking for some thoughts....
On the 27th of September there was first an lack of internet access starting around 1AM, no access until around 5:45 AM when there was a retrain and everything came back to life, but this time with a poor sync rate low 60's when I'm normally 76+ and one very noticeable change, G.INP was enabled on the Upstream for the first time ever. Every 2 days there was a DLM event between 5-8AM for 2 weeks, obviously DLM had reset and nice speed increments, but also on the final last few speed steps before DLM ended it was applying INP at 55, max the line ever had was 50 and normally settled on 47 and ran for months on end at this level of protection. It settled on 79999/20000 for connection speed, all fine, except my actual throughput speed has been stuck at 67Mbps from around the connection speed rate of 70 Mbps or so and as it stepped up connection finally to 79999, thoughput hasn't moved one iota off 67Mbps.
My PN dashboard says I'm at 70.2Mbps, throughputs say not available but have always shown in the past, the speed they show is not the case, PN did a test on the line today and they tell me my sync rate is 76Mbps, but this is not correct that's my old sync rate back on the 27th and they've tried to tell me my speedtests are wrong, uh, no they aren't. One additional strange anomoly, is that the BTW speedtest won't perform the "further test" it always returns an error so I can't see the IP profile, it's always worked in the past.
So I'm stumped, my stats are as follows, happy to provide charts too, but starting with the stats:

The group's input would be appreciated.....PN says all is fine....I have a thread over there in case you want to look at what they've said, seems I'm no alone, another one at the exact same limited speed with a similar event.
