Think this will be going back.

My god, the download is about half its normal rate, usually its 12 down and 1 up.

Thats with the ASUS supplied filter as I swapped it over to se if that was the issue.

Put the BT filter on and its back to normal speed,

Twice now with the ASUS filter, I will leave it till tomorrow to see if it "syncs" better, then its going back.


Edit..another additional 3 times now its lost connection.
 
Are the line stats looking any better?

Given the available evidence I'd be looking for a line fault (even if it is apparently okay with the HH4). Have you tried connecting to the master socket test port? Is there any noise on the line?
 
Wait a week at least with it plugged in.

Make unplug all other phones/filters to rule them out too.

So you want a single filter, then into your router.




If after a week it's playing up.. then get router stats, connect to BT test socket, then wait another week and get stats.


The router itself is great.
 
Come home from work.

Looked at the log and its been dropping all day long.

Run speedtest and the download is pants.
 
So the ASUS stopped crashing/dropping the internet, but synced at a much lower download speed.

So i am un happy as its lost around 1/4 of my speed.

I have removed it and fitted the homehub 4 again and this is now also reporting a lower download speed than i use to have.


• Has the ASUS finally syncing with the exchanged cause me to now get a lower speed?

• can this be reversed?

Well yesterday was the final straw, more multiple connection drops.

So took the piece of junk back for a refund.

Back to using the HH4 and hope the BT DLM restores my full download connection speed.
 
On Whirlpool (Australian internet forum) the Asus dsl-n55u chipset is criticised for trying to get a higher sync rate which is susceptible to problems.

Think the TP-Link D7 (if that's the one using Broadcom chipset) is considered the one to go for according to Whirlpool. But paying for AC wireless.
