Well done mate. You have the patience of a saint (similar to me when I moved house and tried getting a simultaneous transfer with the same tel. no.) Took around 2-3 weeks with bt ballsing it up every inch of the way.

We had the same problem when we last moved 4 years ago, when BT was supposed to transfer our BT phone and BT Broadband connection. But when we moved in no phone or broadband because the number they gave us was our next door neighbours number, because there only used to be one detached bungalow originally on the plot but it was demolished and two detached ones built in its place about 5 years ago, hence our number 4a did not seem to exist, although the previous elderly tenant who had since died hence our purchase, had a BT phone service. It took BT over 3 weeks to sort out, with them giving us several different numbers in the process and still till this day we keep getting phone calls requesting to speak to someone we have not not heard of and insisting they have the correct number.

Yes, it took me over a week to get my phone transferred when I moved, yet they swore it was working, and threatened the call out charge to get an engineer out!  I then told them if the problem was found at their end, I would be charging them for lost earnings while I had to wait in for the engineer, plus my mobile calls.  Miraculously, the phone worked the next day, and no charge.  I still asked for a contribution towards my mobile calls, and they graciously offered me £1.

If you truly believe you need to pick a mobile phone that 'says something' about your personality, don't bother. You don't have a personality. A mental illness, maybe - but not a personality

Router's in sync, only PPP is down. I'm still suspicious of your router, Core.

Possible, but that amber light troubles me. The Huawei would be a good choice as it's likely you're connected to one of their MSAN's.

BT test is at:

http://test.speedtester.bt.com:50301/

It sounds like you have have a 2Mbps or so profile atm. Can't help with the Belkin, sorry, but try Kitz:

here's my bt stats, do these look ok for dlm period?

Test1 comprises of Best Effort Test:  -provides background information.
    Your DSL connection rate: 7291 kbps(DOWN-STREAM),  888 kbps(UP-STREAM)
    IP profile for your line is - 7150 kbps
    Actual IP throughput achieved during the test was - 2066 kbps

thruput looks a bit low
