If your sync speed remains steady for a long time (think weeks), then the BT line details database will be updated to reflect the new sync speed. It can take several weeks though.

As I mentioned before:
I would take the speed the 'BT availability checker' gives you with a massive pinch of salt! - that's not the speed of your line it's just an estimate based on what it's been seeing lately. So as you have been losing connection it's had a re-think.

Just ignore it - the important thing is what speed you actually connect at - not what some BT line guestimator has in it's system!

Hi Ok all is well with my broadband these days how ever, acording to Freeola and BT the max speed available on my line is still only 4.5 mb yet am exceeding 6.5 regularly now, so when will the speed thing go back up?

My IP profile is back up and every thing is good its just that 4.5 thing thats bugging me now.

Hi Hmmm Eccles and Aaron.
I checked out my neighbours phone numbers last week and took note of expected speeds, and I reported on here that they were all low! inc mine, I have checked them all again today, and and they are all back up to 7.5 last week they were all over the place, my one still shows at 4.5, but I expect once things settle down again it will go back up. But in summing up yer honours I still think that BT have had a fault at the exchange that caused this problem, but they are not going to admit to it. Why else would all the numbers go down then all come back up. Remember I told you that I was not alone with my problems. Still happy that my router has been replaced its peace of mind.

Morning Digi.

Now that you are back on the maximum sync your IP Profile will recover to 7150 (that's as good as you can go)!

Data rate is now back up to 8128kbps this was the result from BT early this morning but other tests at BBMAX etc are comming back with terrific results now, 6.4, 6.2, 6.1, 6.3, 6.4. So things are looking really good again I will check it at differant times of the day to compare though.
