Hey,
Ok so 2ish years ago my line had a stable 3mbit sync for a good 2 years, i never did anything when things went wrong as ive been at uni. These days however it's hard to get a 1mbit sync and today its a 0.5mbit sync, which is a joke.
I've tried different routers, filters with nothing else on the line and I live ~ 2.58km from the exchange. On a reboot, the router gets a sync of 4544kbps, this never lasts long enough for the bras to change, and 9 times out of 10 it holds in the day but drops down to ~ 1mbit at night, hence screwing the bras profile.
Here's a summary of how unstable the line syncs are:
The other potential problem is that dsl is on my 2nd line. This line only has a single socket with 1 ports in the whole house. Im no expert with BT wiring, but in my house the master socket on line 1 is maybe 90 meter's from the second line, and I think its just a straight 'split' through a BT junction box to get the second line. (http://img842.imageshack.us/img842/2863/housem.png).
The bell wire is cut on the 2nd line socket, but it doesn't seem to be a master socket, just a split second line faceplate?
2nd Line Faceplate (1 port is 2nd adsl line, 1 port is main line): Click
Main Line Non-DSL Master (I think) Faceplate: Click
Is there anything I can do to resolve these issues?
- Move ADSL onto Line 1 and run it off the master socket, this will be maybe 85% closer to where the line enters the building. Cost/Benefit for this?
- Get BT out to test the line? - £150 if im wrong and there's no fault... Something's definitely not right though.
ISP is Zen ADSL-MAX, same problem was present on previous ISP UKFSN/Entanet.
Current (but variable) line stats:
Thanks a lot for any help.
