GC that SNR/ Noise margin is very low, you may start suffering drop outs on the connection. Check your telephone line and make sure that if there is more than on telephone outlet that anything plugged in is using a filter and that nothing is on the line without a filter attached. Also check if you have a NT5E socket (should have a physical split going left to right just above the fitting screws) and if you do remove the bottom of the plate and try connecting via the test socket with a filter.
Peak times you may struggle with that SNR and your line may be a bit flakey. BTW did you get the old white router or the new dark grey/ black one?
