New o2 Install Annex Question n Others

Defiance_co · 17 Jul 2008 at 22:51

Hiya's,

First off my install started with the need to reset my modem lol, CS were great and i was up n running quickly (wednesday 16th july)

Now, My modem is the 780wl (from reading the o2 version of a speedtouch)

When i check on the o2 site after logging in to check stats etc, My DSL Connection part comes up with "Modulation: G.992.5 annex A"

Shouldn't that read annex M ?????

And also, Do i leave my modem on for 10 days or something ? (reading bits about it's self adjusting at the exchange to self sort optimal conx)

It started at a high conx rate but through subsequent powerdowns the speeds seem to be dropping or nudging up n dropping etc (hence question above)

I've come across other posts on forums and their stats show Annex M so curious and i'm sure i read that Annex M was better (i think)

Hope this makes sense

Many Thanks

Cheers

Hiya's,

It was in a way AbsenceJam at the time of writing but now ........

Si MPS i found some easy to digest (noobie) stuff on annex m, Seems i best leave well alone for now and hope the initial speed testing on my conx goes well

My thinking rightly or wrongly (prolly wrongly lol) was with annex m implemented, It could have helped with my DL speed side of things but then again maybe not so leave as-is

Obviously i'm new to adsl hence many questions of which some may seem a tangent off the mark somewhat

:/jokemode So far i'm crossing my SN's and hoping for Low Attenuations

I now see there's no set exact equasions for adsl speeds but a rough equasion is possible

Cheers for replies

Hiya,

Cheers for reply tolien

Keep checking stats and watching Attenuation and SN's change lol

Fun learning new stuff though, Swapped BT's faceplate to a adsl nation XTE-2005 after reading good things about them

A question, If i was to go buy a Netgear DG834GT Would it be best to leave this o2 Thomson 780wl on and then swap for the netgear after 10 days ?

Many Thanks
