Xbandito · Apr 03, 2006, 09:10:57

Anybody been regraded yet ??, not sure if I have...if I have it has not made any difference to download

but upload...hmmm

Ok....I know why speed is low....my SNR has dropped from 26 to 5.5

Nothing my end has changed since yesterday......so why the big drop

Jeff · Apr 03, 2006, 09:49:28

Yes! Synced at 6528kbps

Speedtest disappointing though

Xbandito · Apr 03, 2006, 09:56:24

Just found this on Adslguide -:
http://aaisp.blogspot.com/2006/04/initial-rate-cap-on-max-lines.html

Apparently I am synced at 8128kbps

Jeff · Apr 03, 2006, 09:59:10

Ah OK but I`m not touching anything! I`m scared that I re-sync at 512!

Xbandito · Apr 03, 2006, 10:01:56

kuja · Apr 03, 2006, 11:34:02

Yup,

ADSL Link    Downstream    Upstream
Connection Speed    8128 kbps    448 kbps
Line Attenuation    34 db    11.5 db
Noise Margin    7 db    21 db

Capped at 2mbit still just like everyone else I think!

Longest 75 minutes I've ever known

Synched @ around 4.45 this morning and still on 1930ish

It is BT we are talking about...

kuja · Apr 03, 2006, 12:57:53

I rebooted the router about an hour ago, and I'm getting 5.5mbit speeds

Xbandito · Apr 03, 2006, 12:59:35

all right for some

sobranie · Apr 03, 2006, 13:23:14

I've rebooted 2 or 3 times but no luck yet.
Haven't tried booting the cat yet but 'tis on the cards [grin]

Jeff · Apr 03, 2006, 13:27:02

Rebooted but no difference in throughput, however, synching at 6848 now

hehe yeah, though i must admit im not getting stable speeds..keeps going up and down....its been the same with 2mbit for the past 3/4 weeks $:-\$

Jeff · Apr 03, 2006, 13:31:43

There are going to be some bizarre speeds with Max. Ppl need to realise that sync speed and throughput can be entirely different

yeah no doubt, but i've been having the same with 2mbit recently (speeds down to 70-80kbps)..could it be down to contention?

Jeff · Apr 03, 2006, 13:37:43

Yes, most definately exchange contention. I`ve been suffering it for months

Jeff · Apr 03, 2006, 14:23:19

Well, rebooted and now synching at 7008kbps! Downloading at 750kb/sec atm ... sweet

Xbandito · Apr 03, 2006, 14:33:21

so it will be another month or so, before BT cross the border....an then another month before they sort out the exchanges "in the sticks"..

Switched off router for 15 mins = nothing
updated firmware = nothing

sync at 7808 d/l speed of 240kbps

Quoteso it will be another month or so, before BT cross the border....an then another month before they sort out the exchanges "in the sticks"..

Well, I was starting to think that but patience man ... good sync. speed btw

Xbandito · Apr 03, 2006, 16:57:19

patience is running thin

My internet is all over the place.....250kbps then five mins later 80kbps

It's network congestion caused by everybody running speed tests....

kuja · Apr 03, 2006, 20:15:15

Hmm I've just noticed that my router doesn't have SNR....been looking at DS Noise margin all the time :/

Is SNR the same as DS Noise margin, if not how can I find out what my SNR is?

Xbandito · Apr 03, 2006, 20:45:09

Kuja, are you able to "telnet" into your router ?
