Same old issue with Sky.

[rom4ik5]

Well, I really don't know about the stats properly, since I'm only familiar with other types of fibre broadbands.
Mine is just plain simple unlimited, but the fact is, it doesn't even compare to the stats.
I had a forum post here before, and my internet kinda became normal on it's own.
Old problem was that I used to get 400 kb/ps Download speeds, but after some time, it became 800 kb/ps.
Now, it dropped down again to 400, and I just can't handle it anymore.
Notice : plugged into the test socket right now (ethernet cable only give a 100 kb/ps boost, nothing else)

Is there anything wrong with my stats?
or is there probably something wrong with my line?
If so, what do I even tell sky if I phone em?
I also don't know anything about the engineer cost. (65 pounds for an engi is insane IMO if you ask me)
Thanks for the answers!

How are you measuring your download speed?

Your line attenuation and noise margin looks really ugly.

- Check your wiring, also replace your ADSL filter.
- Did your line just recently go active? Are you aware of Sky's proprietary "DLM" service?
- To give us a clearer overview of your line, report back the line distance from your address to the exchange: here

- Do a manual quiet line test, dial "17070" via your landline (free of charge) to connect with Sky test services. Listen for the option of the "Quiet line" test (I forgot which). You gotta be in a quiet environment for 10secs or so while she checks your line.

Since I'm foreign, I actually don't know anything about the wiring here on the plate.
I actually had this same internet at my old rented flat before I moved to this one 6 months ago, and there, I used to get proper speeds on Steam, streaming websites like Twitch.tv (basically used to get around 3mb/ps at my old flat)
My exchange is from Glasgow to Bridgeton, and from my place, that's around 2.5 KM.

Forgot to mention, I don't have a phone :/ Just broadband.

Even if you don't use it you should get a cheap cordless phone to check your line. It could be saturated with noise for all you know.

Your line attenuation indicates that either you are much further from the exchange than 2.5k, more like 3.9k line length, or you have a bad fault on your line or setup. If the attenuation is correct you are doing quite well to get 5600kbps, which should give you a through put speed of around 5-600KBps.

If you are getting much less than this, it is probably down to you using wireless. Wireless will always give less than you get using ethernet. You may be able to improve your wifi speed by changing the routers channel. As a start change it to channel 13, this is often the quietest channel.

When you tried the Test socket, How to test your ADSL in the Master Test Socket did you notice if there was any increase in the noise margin? I ask this, as if your speed has been set to a particular level by DLM, your speed will not increase by much, but if the noise margin increases this shows you have a problem with your set up.

I will test the normal socket then as well, and see if that changes.
Btw, if I call for an engineer, will I have to pay for it or?

If there is a fault on your external line, you will not have to pay. If the fault is internal then you are liable to be charged. This is why I suggest you buy a cheap phone to check.

By the way, the £65 charge is for a TV call out, phone engineer call outs are charged differently, anything from £100 upwards..

Okay then.
But it's been like this since I moved to this new adress, and it's actually not far away from my old one.
The thing is, there was already a BT plate here when I moved in, but at my old flat, the engineer fitted a new plate.
Maybe there could be a problem in the plate itself?

[rom4ik5]

The first one is the master socket, the second one is yesterdays test socket.

So, I actually don't know whats better.

[Isitme]

As it is nearly a straight through connection if the test socket gives the same results its unlikely the box is faulty. I can only say again, buy a cheap phone and check the line. You can get one from Argos for just over a fiver -
Buy Simple Value Corded Telephone - Single at Argos.co.uk - Your Online Shop for Telephones.

Re your last post, the result is much better in your test socket which indicates something wrong with your set up. Do you have any other phone sockets, are they used, by a Sky box for instance?
