Currently on ADSL Max through Entanet but I've just seen Orange are doing "up to 20mb" in my area, and they are the only ones (exchange is SLARM on Samknows). I've always had top speeds with my broadband, sync solidly at 7616/448 and download at about 800k/sec, and not that I understand them but Line Attenuation 16.0 db and
Noise Margin 16.9 db, but now Enta cap me all weekend (and most ...

That's not good! With your
attenuation of 21 dB you could get 19 Meg. Presume you on LLU as you once got 11 Meg.
The D/S NM is too high and the U/S NM is bugged. Could be due to noise on your house wiring. Have you changed filters, plugged into master socket behind faceplate, removed ring wire and connected by Ethernet?

Presume DNSs given you were Orange's own?
Try an independent one like OpenDNS : 208.67.222.222 & 208.67.220.220

Orange website checker consistently underestimates speeds!
It predicts only 9.5 Meg on my line that has run at 16 meg LLU.

Yes, it's correct; you have a dynamic IP addy. It should not affect you in any way, unless you were running a server. In which case you would need an ISP supplying Static IP addys.

For starters, where did you do speedtest? Sounds like http://www.speedtest.net? Better to speedtest here at TBB.
It probably mis-looked up (whois) the owner of your IP
addys or one ISP released a block of them to t'other and records are not up-to-date.

Are you on LLU with Orange?
There is a known issue with
TBB speedtests to Orange LLU : http://forums.thinkbroadband.com/freeserve/f/35640 37...
but your daytime D/S speeds look too high for that.
Post your full router stats?
