That is a low number! (as the attenuation figure a minus figure, so
-63.5dB). I used to have 3 lines all with similar stats so I switched ISP
and got them bonded together. I definitely recommend this if you can afford
it.
I think BT have a minimum value which is like -65dB or -70dB, at which
point they won't provide any service because they can't provide any minimum
service level guaranties. If you line is above -65dB (which yours is) and
drops to -65dB you can ring them up and file a fault and they will came and
over your line.
Cheers,
James.
