ADSL Max Help

FosterK · 24 Jun 2006 at 16:39

Right, my ADSL max has come into effect today - yet I'm not able to get higher than the 2MB speeds I was on, despite being connected at 7616/488.

I've tried speed tests and just downloading stuff - I can't get it over the 250KBytes/s I was used to.

Line stats:

I've noticed that my downstram noise margin is considerably lower than it used to be (though I can't put my finger on what it was - I know it was double figures), is this good, or the problem?

Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

Cool, thanks for that!

Right, I'm still stuck at 2 meg speeds.

Rebooted the router several times each day, no change. Any advice?

Bad advise. Rebooting the router unnecessarily can make the BT systems think you're line is unstable and drop your sync rate and enable interleaving.

Ah. I'll leave it as it is for a few days in that case.

Care to define Interleaving? Google's throwing up rubbish about hard drives and RAM :/

Alright, thanks for clearing that up.

If it's not sorted by this time tomorrow, it'll be moaning-down-the-phone time.

As for rebooting the router - I'm talking like 3 times a day... Morning, 4:00-ish and 10:00-ish. So yeah

Still the same - so I got on the blower to an "Arun Manoharran"...

Apparently, BT are still finding a stable speed... should be done in 10 days :/

Well, it's updated now - started pulling 700K/s on the picture thread in the games section - which was nice
