Is it possible to get a router where the user can specify the sync rate. This could offer a strategy for coping with the situation where a sync at 3744kbps and margin of 15db changes every day in 15 minutes down to 0db margin, I then lose my connection and an essential reboot then gets me 15db margin but at 1856. I thought if I could specify a sync rate somewhere between the two values I could then get a margin to survive the drop. At present I have a Netgear 384G v3 and a 2-wire 2700 v6
What you want is the DMT tool and a Speedtouch router.

DMT does not work on the 21CN version of DLM I understand.
Though, hopefully, BT will roll out the scheme to allow ISPs to manually override DLM that was trialled earlier this year.

Portreath the nearest exchange to Tehidy is not on 21CN , Camborne is enabled so it depends which exchange it is.
Ah right.
I am on Camborne exchange. First I need to work out what all the abbreviations mean. :blush: I deduce that as I changed to adsl2+and then downgraded to WBC ADSL Max then DMT will not work for me :(
Ahh, Camborne would mean no DMT then. If you were upgraded to ADSL2+ and that failed due to line length/noise etc. your connection would have been remodulated to a Max speed but I doubt you would have been placed back on a Max connection.
I would get some router stats together,run a few BT speed tests and send them to support to see if there is anything they can do.

My IDNet package -cut and paste-
Package: Home PAYG (WBC ADSL MAX)
Premium Broadband: No
ADSL2+: Yes
Yes I was modified when my upgrade to ADSL2+ proved to be a bit of a catastophe.
Will do some tests when rewiring of extension and repositioning of DECT phone is complete.
There's no going back as far as the physical connection is concerned.
