my bb broadband was activated today and the spped test says 1mb down with the phone plugged in,unplug the phone and i get 1.8mb down.

if i unplug the router and then plug it back in i have to dial out on the phone for the internet to connect.the guy said it sends acharge down the phone and to check everything is plugged in.

i checked everything its all good.

do the lines still take a while to settle?

cheers

Is it BT?

Tried a different phone? You did plug the filter in right didn't you? Tried a different filter?
