Any sugestions are better that Sky CS efforts

. It's been a long running issue that's deteriorated over a long period of time (lots of dropped connections and poor resync speeds) but has accelerated in the last few months or so. I've had openreach check my line and internal wiring and with regards the later all checks out ok. As for the line from the exchange of which apparently a large amount consists of aluminium they suggest the distance from the exchange is the cause, although the cabling hasn't increased in length since I first got B/band.

My line attenuation is as when first installed and more often than not my line noise is likewise.
But anyway thanks for the rsponse brumlad.
