SNR Reset :)

Question

My broadband speed used to be around 5mb-6mb. Then a 2-3 of months ago it dropped and is now 1.2mb-1.8mb. It had been 5mb+ for a few years.
The problem is the noise. I have tried everything there is to do with regard trying to reduce noise levels. Moved wiring, plugged direct into socket, moved router, tried different router/cables, and a lot more. The speed is the same on the wired PC as for the laptops and mobile devices. The reason it has taken so long to come on here is that I need to change something, and then wait for 3 days to see if it changes. However, the SNR has always stayed the same. The BT quiet test is silent.
Last week I installed a Openreach faceflate to split the the sigals at the socket, and also used a shielded phone cable. Results are still the same. All electronic equipment within 2 meters is now off. I would have thought these latter changes would have made a difference, but the SNR seems to be stuck.
As some of my work relies on fast data transfer, I now have to use a Windows VPS to get a transfer rate of 30-45 milliseconds, whereas here it is 100-160ms. It was 45-60 for a few years until recently.

We haven't been able to complete the speed test at this time.
This may be due to a problem with the speed tester, or your line may be running very slowly.
