ADSL2+ Drop out and speed fluctuations

Hi there,

I have had fluctuations in speed on my ADSL2+ with speed ranging from only a few kbps up to around 12mbps (speedtest.net). This has been the case for years. Netflix often buffers.

I am now getting drop outs. I work from home often and connect to the office via VPN and this regularly disconnects when the internet drops out.

I have purchased a new modem (TPLink ARCHER VR2600) to see if that resolves it however it has not.

I have had an electrician attend and check the MDF Krone blocks in the apartment block. These appear to be in very good operating condition.

Can you please run some checks and advise next steps.

Many thanks,
Aaron
