The BT DLM doesn't unnecessarily change connection profiles.
Its job is to maintain a stable connection when instability is present.
In your case, the SNRM dropped rapidly to zero after dark last evening (that's why the router re-synced last night) the DLM recovered it to a SNR that would provide a stable connection.
You still have a connection problem so keep that appointment with the engineer.

So, there's a fault with the line? What do I tell the engineer? Did the SNR drop because my line couldnt handle the speed?
I can't remember but have you plugged the router into the test socket (inside, behind the faceplate of the main BT socket) ? If not do this now then start RouterstatsLite.
By the way, it's the engineer's job to tell you what's wrong not the other way round .....you don't want to be doing their job for them !

Unfortunately that program doesn't want to work with my BT home hub. :/
What is the Home hub ?........it works with Voyager models as does the full-blown version of Routerstats.
You need to click on the "Other Router" and enter its URL.
It's the router that BT provides. It works with the earlier Home Hub v1, but I have a Home Hub v2.
By the way, I've now got the router connected direct instead of on an extension, and my line stats are now as follows:
Line state Connected
Connection time 0 days, 1:32:27
Downstream 8,128 Kbps
Upstream 448 Kbps
ADSL settings

I've been having IP problems on and off for the past two years. The last effort to get this resolved with Orange cost £8 in phone calls. My IP profile shows as 2500kbps when historically I used to get around 7000kbps. True - the numpties on Orange "Helplines" can only regurgitate their scripts and don't want to listen to what the problem actually is. I eventually got it sorted but the problem is back.
I'm ringing them one last time tonight - then it's goodbye Orange, hello Sky!
