Hello, i have recently got maxdsl on my line, which the BT website should be able to handle at least 5.5mbps. However when speed testing i get no better than 200 - 300kbps down with 200 - 300 kbps upload. I have tried plugging directly into the plug behind the faceplate, which has no effect. So my thinking is that i have a noisy line. But i am not sure how to interpret the data my router gives me:
DSL Status: UP
DSL Modulation Mode: GDMT
DSL Path Mode: FAST
Downstream Rate: 8128 Kbps
Upstream Rate: 448 Kbps
Downstream Margin: 3 db
Upstream Margin: 22 db
Downstream Line Attenuation: 37
Upstream Line Attenuation: 19
Downstream Transmit Power: 0
Upstream Transmit Power: 0
The downstream margin varies from between 0 - 3db. My router is also a rather crappy linksys AG241 which i intend to replace. I have also tested with two different routers, to the same effect.
Any help is much appreciated.
Many thanks,
Ganesh.
