ADSL sync speed reduced after rain. Think it's a line fault

I am a TPG ADSL 2+ customer..

Two days ago with the start of the rain, my ADSL connection has gone from 12 Mbps to 1Mbps... Can I please get some assistance from a rep please.

I have done a line check, can hear a dial tone and there does not appear to be noise on the line that I can hear..

(I've done the normal troubleshooting tasks like rebooting router and modem etc)

 

I have had numerous line faults diagnosed and fixed in the last five years. It's extremely disapointing to think there may be another.

Hi @Ikw,

 

Welcome to the Community!

 

We definitely want to get this resolved for you.

 

Ive searched for your account using your Community details and was able to find a match.

 

Just ran a remote line test and this currently shows no physical issue on the line.

 

But I do still recommend that we have one of our technicians give you a call to resolve your issue as your service may be affected by other factors.

 

Please let us know your best time and contact number via PM so I can get a technician to call you.

 

For your reference, please view this link on How do I private message (PM) in the community.

 

Cheers!
