How come my next door neighbour gets 5.6mb and I can only get 2.3 ish same exchange and further away

sobranie · Apr 26, 2006, 20:56:06

Different VP @ exchange probably.

unless you were able to trace the physical wires from your & your neighbours premises there's no telling where they may be running...line length...wiring material...joins too.

This is strange though ... there is a vast difference between your sync speed and that of your neighbour, how far exactly are you from your exchange Coopes? You can find out here if you didn`t know already

May require a lift and shift if like Rick says your on a dodgy VP

Coopes · Apr 30, 2006, 09:43:58

About 3.5km as the crow flies about 10 meter closer that next door.

Glenn · Apr 30, 2006, 12:58:15

Ah so you are 10m too close

Coopes · Apr 30, 2006, 18:27:32

Seems that way

Anyway setting him a wireless network up, so I will get a better speed one way ot another

poacher

after freebies as well.....

Coopes · Apr 30, 2006, 20:20:30

you know me

Jeff · Apr 30, 2006, 21:20:41

I can`t believe he gets 5.6MBit being so far away from the exchange?

Has he by any chance installed anything like Cat5 cabling which may reduce noise on his line? I can`t answer this one fully, guess he`s just hellish lucky for some reason

Coopes · Apr 30, 2006, 22:23:48

No cat5 just plain old cheap cr*p cable, and it's an extension.

Jeff · May 01, 2006, 02:23:16

Does he worship a different God to you?

Can`t add anything more my good m8, some things just ... are
