Should my Nildram MAX be stable by now?

Hi folks

This is what the Nildram control panel says;

Maximum stable rate 7968Kbps
Line speed 7968Kbps
Fault threshold 5555Kbps
Maximum Product Line Speed: upto 8Mbps
VPI 0
VCI 38
PPP Type/Encapsulation PPPoA (PPP over ATM)
Framing VC-MUX
Modulation/Mode G.DMT

My router page says;

Type Fast
Status No Defect
Data rate 8128 448
Noise margin 7.8 20.0
Output power 19.8 12.0
Attenuation 24.0 12.0

It was activated on the 20th April, so should it be stable now? The noise margin does go down a bit at night I have noticed.

I lost connection in BF2 last night after about half an hour, I can't be doing with that happening much, was that because of ADSL MAX?

Would a better router solve that? I have a Belkin 7633-4UK ADSL2+ Router

Or one of those faceplate things?

It is mate right next to master socket with no extensions.

I might get a Netgear DG834PN 108Mbps Rangemax Wireless ADSL2 Modem/Router/Switch/Firewall

There not very good so far no, no better than Plusnet.

In fact, with Plusnet I didnt drop out of BF2 with connection problems...!

So we shall see...

I wonder if my disconnecting from BF2 is due to having all settings on MAX, but only 1GB of ram...?

I've got my 2nd stick arriving tommorow, the other 1GB Was faulty so had to RMA it and couldnt be bothered to change the settings down as I dont play it often! (twice a week!)

Mine disconnects every day at about 1130 ish at night.

I have to turn the router on and off again.

Fed up with it TBH, I was better off with Plusnet, at least it never disconnected.

I bought an ADSL faceplate thing so gonna fit that in the next day or two and see if it helps.
