Re: line running through trees is that causing my issuses
Your stats suggest there isn't a line problem so the line running through the tress is a non issue.
What exactly is the problem you are experiencing?

Re: line running through trees is that causing my issuses
I am confused, is 37.5mbps under your guaranteed minimum? If not then there is no fault.
Its completely normal to lose 5-10% of your sync speed when running a speedtest due to network overheads. So if your line speed is showing as 40/10 then a speedtest of anything above 37mbps down & 9mbps up would be considered normal.

Re: line running through trees is that causing my issuses
To be quite honest, looking at your lines margins, I dont see why you couldnt achieve more than 40mbps. Did you specifically go for the Superfast 35 package or are you on a Social Tariff? If not you should be able to get onto the 'Up to 80mbps' package.

Re: line running through trees is that causing my issuses
@jamesn123hi i went to fttc (superfast )before they brought out the superfast 35but they decided to put me on the superfast 35 as i went to (superfast in 2020) during lockdown so i had to tell openreach man that what was happing at router ectso not my choice to move to the (superfast35) and i had open reach out the other day and he brought my line speed to 40/10 but said that i can get about 50/60 but he said he cant do that ? as it could make my line unstable? and it would pull my speed down again to 40 but i cant see why i cant get them speeds but i post a wholesale pic so you can see my sppeds i could get

The exchange is not in a current fibre priority programme
As a WLR withdrawal exchange, product restrictions apply
SOADSL is not restricted at the exchange
For all ADSL and WBC Fibre to the Cabinet (VDSL or G.fast) services, the stable line rate will be determined during the first 10 days of service usage.
For all SOADSL services,the stable line rate will be determined during the first 10 days of service usage.
Actual speeds experienced by end users and quoted by CPs will be lower due to a number of factors within and external to BT's network, Communication Providers' networks and within customer premises.
If you decide to place an order for a WBC fibre product, an appointment may be required for an engineer to visit the end user's premises to supply the service
In order to be eligible for handback, downstream speed should be less than Downstream Handback Threshold values.
ADSL, ADSL2+ and SOADSL availability: If shown at FTTP or SOGEA premises,ADSL, ADSL2+ and SOADSL are not available to order due to WLR Withdrawal stop sell rules. CPs should order FTTP or SOGEA. Copper products are only available by exception.

Re: line running through trees is that causing my issuses
Ah looks like its because your handback threshold is below 40mbps so Sky will have put you in the lower speed bracket

Re: line running through trees is that causing my issuses
@loverboi it is Sky's policy to provision customers whose lines have handback speeds under 40Mb/s onto the 40/10 Openreach product. This has been queried before but customers are not given the option of the 80/20 product even if in ideal circumstances their lines could achieve speeds on 40Mb/s down and 10Mb/s up. Other isps may have different policies. In practice the difference between 40Mb/s and 50Mb/s is going to be marginal.

Re: line running through trees is that causing my issuses
@loverboi the sync speed of the hub is determined by its length and quality which is simply down to the laws of physics . A 40Mb/s sync will only give a speed test around 37Mb/s as you lose 8% to network overheads again a simple fact based on how networking works. So nobody is taking you for a fool.
