From the dslchecker results you had a 20mb up speed on 5th June suggesting fibre 2 but your hub appears to have restarted with virtually 10mb fibre 1 max.

Are you having connection problems with hub dropping connection or annual resets or maybe both. Your max attainable form hub is 68mb which is within dslchecker expected range.

Something certainly seems odd

Thanks for the reply I did have a fault for one day a couple of weeks ago but before that I was still getting the same speed as I getting now the router hasn't been dropping connection we had a power cut that's why the router had restarted

As I posted the odd thing is the checker showing hub up speed of 20mb which shows fibre 2 connection on 5th June and then dropped to virtually 10mb after power cut.

I have asked mods to look at your profile to see if fibre 1 or 2. They will post here

Hi I just looked at the event log it was the same before the power cut

03:21:00, 04 Jun.DSL Link Up: Down Rate=48980kbps, Up Rate=9995kbps; snr Margin Down=11.3dB, Up=16.3dB

It is also strange that your connection speed is not at fibre 1 max of 55mb

Just leave it now and wait for mods to contact you.
