Engineer #4 just been here. He's the same guy as #2 visit that removed foliage and told me to see if that helped. It didn't.
He did a "Lift & Shift" at the cabinet. Asked me to put an older router in and leave that on, as he thinks it's the router. (I have told him I've tried this already for various periods of time)
I reiterated that it's not so much the number of the speed, but the fact my speeds dropped by 15mbps overnight (months ago now), and continue to be limited. To me that suggests a fault, causing the DLM to aim for lower speeds and stability.
He said maybe BT is throttling me. I asked if that's even possible... he said yes, they used to do it all the time. Lol.
He has also suggested radio waves or something may cause interference. He also raised an eyebrow at my 10/55 package. I don't know.
He also said my Ethernet cable may be causing cross-talk or something like that, and to get a new cable to try.
Told me it's not corrosion as all tests passed.
Oooh, also said games use a lot of bandwidth, so maybe that's causing the disconnects and instability...
Not sure what to do now, wait and see I guess! Just wanted to update anyone who has the patience to keep up with this!
Appreciate you all.
