hi all
just out of curiosity...
I thought I would add IDnet's DNS from my dads connection settings email to the benchmarking apps I use to test and compare with others, however it reports they are not repsonding?
Primary DNS: 212.69.40.3
> Secondary DNS: 212.69.36.3
have these changed?
the DNS apps I use are
http://www.grc.com/dns/benchmark.htm
http://code.google.com/p/namebench/
both are good although i think namebench does longer more vigorous tests but not sure
You've got the correct addresses for the DNS
And they are working fine here.

wow thats an impressive ping response there rik
Fast path, ADSL2+. Curiously, on Max, I was interleaved and 1M slower. :dunno:

here are my two pings to those, on standard ADSL Max
crikeys..
under 10ms on standard ADSLmax interleaved??
im gunna have to get my dad to test his..
im on o2 20Mb and get 27ms Interleaved which I though was brill for interleaving
I suspect that was a leased line. ;)
No snadge, it's from my works connection.
look at Garys - 15-16ms on ADSLmax??? - surely thats FastPath?
It should be.

whats the connection though Bill?
does it have interleaving? or FastPath?
hey I just thought
for FTTC what is the actuall connection called? - like your have ADSL / ADSLmax / ADSL2 / ADSL2+ ... FTTC is like bringing the exchange to the end of your street or next street - so whats the connection between the PCP (Cabinet) to the home?
It's VDSL, snadge.

Good question, you can't get any stats from the BT modem. I assume it's fastpath, it was when the engineer installed it and I don't think it's re-sync'd since. Profile (from the BT speedtester) is 38717Kbps down, 10000Kbps up.

It's VDSL- Very-high-bitrate digital subscriber line. Wiki:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/VDSL
thanks Bill :)
nice sync rate buddy - especially upload - guess i will have to wait and make do with my 19,272k / 1,300k
"Make do"! Tsk! :rant2:
I just wonder whether it's VDSL2 the information I can find is not clear
I believe it is, it has generally a higher performance and is roughly equivalent to ADSL2 at 1.6km.
There has been some muttering about higher speeds being available in future (presumably when BT get the backhaul in to handle it), so it's quite possible that it's VDSL2 kit that's been restricted to VDSL rates.
Something like 200Mbit within 250m of your beloved green box of cabling pandemonium. I'm pretty sure the BT backhaul can't carry that yet. Also I believe VDSL actually is worse than previous technologies at a certain distance whereas VDSL2 is almost always "as good" as ADSL2 except at extreme ranges, so it makes more sense I think.
Edit: what am I saying.... when have BT made sense!?
Answers, on a postcard please, to... ;D
