What has caused this?
 
Today I noticed openreach installing a new line to my next door neighbours house.

Since then my speed has dropped from 20mb to 15.5mb. My line attenuation has also changed from 18db to 15.5db.

Here is full stats

Bandwidth (Up/Down) [kbps/kbps]: 1,386 / 15,614
Data Transferred (Sent/Received) [KB/KB]: 40.00 / 303.00
Output Power (Up/Down) [dBm]: 12.0 / 5.5
Line Attenuation (Up/Down) [dB]: 6.5 / 15.5
SN Margin (Up/Down) [dB]: 4.5 / 3.5
Vendor ID (Local/Remote): TMMB / BDCM
Loss of Framing (Local/Remote): 0 / 0
Loss of Signal (Local/Remote): 0 / 0
Loss of Power (Local/Remote): 0 / 0
Loss of Link (Remote): 0
Error Seconds (Local/Remote): 0 / 0
FEC Errors (Up/Down): 0 / 133,800
CRC Errors (Up/Down): 4 / 0
HEC Errors (Up/Down): 52 / 0



Any ideas what migh be causing this and what can i do?

Cheers

Get cable :D


It was only a theory, as similar happens on cable. If it were cable an eng would be able to adjust the amp or remove some attenuators. Not sure if BT can do the same.

Im sure BT will say, your servcie is an "Up to" service ;)

But a loss of speed and a loss of attenuation is not good.

I will get onto Be and see what they say.

Are you friendly with your neighbour? If so, and they have Broadband, you could compare your stats to theirs.
Your upstream hasn't changed, has it? seems fine to me.

The line was only put in today. Ever since this my speed has dropped.

I am guessing the techs maybe damaged the line. I am not happy.

I would contact openreach, but openreach don't deal with anyone other than organisations so BT or Be would be the ones to contact. But the call centre people might tell you it's nout to do with them.

Just been told by Be that there is a fault on my line as BE got me to disconnect everything from my socket but BE are still seeing a device connected so It may have something to do with that.
