Re: Noise on line with ADSL modem ...

If you have a brief spell of bad interference on your line, the BRAS profile held at the exchange will drop right down. When the line clears, the sync speed between the exchange and your modem will go back up but the BRAS profile may take longer to catch up (3-5 days, worst case).

The dowload speed is consistent with a nobbled BRAS profile. Don't know about the ping, though.
