Title: Is this the best
Post by: Den on Aug 23, 2009, 20:50:33
Never thought about it before but is this the best I can get on my line or is there more that I could do?

DSL Connection Details
DSL Line (Wire Pair): Line 1 (inner pair)
Protocol: G.DMT Annex A
Downstream Rate: 7616 kbps 
Upstream Rate: 448 kbps 
Channel: Interleaved
Current Noise Margin: 6.0 dB (Downstream) 23.0 dB (Upstream)
Current Attenuation: 42.2 dB (Downstream) 27.0 dB (Upstream)

I tend to run at about 6mb but at on time I was running at 6.5mb.   ;D

If your error counts are not too high, get interleaving turned off. That will help, the worst thing that can happen is that it gets turned back on if it gets unstable.

Although withthe noise margin at 6 it would suggest that even without interleaving you aren't going to get much better.

I'm with Ted and Lance, Den. If the line can run without interleaving, you might gain about 500k of throughput, otherwise it's almost as good as it gets. Support will turn off interleaving if you ask (it taks 24 hours), but the BT systems will switch it back on if they're unhappy. When you can get WBC, you should get a significant speed increase.

The exchange will be updated between 1st Oct 2009 to 31st March 2010. Thats a wide time scale, are they saying 1st Oct unless something goes wrong or 31st March unless everything goes right.  ::)

I think they're probably just giving themselves a wide enough window to not commit themselves to anything.  ::)

It depends on how many car boot sales they need to visit to get all the parts, Den. ;)

did no one tell u rik that all they do is increase the amount of food they give the hamsters at the exchange..


this is why not many people are seeing speed increases as the hamsters are getting to fat to travel the same distance at a higher speed so settle on the speed they used to
