I have had DSL here since 1999, and remember the telco guy doing some wiring work back then. I have no current problems with my internet.

I am currently with Snap Naked Adsl and looking at  VDSL  for the faster upload speeds.

I have opened my jack point to see whats in it, here is a photo.



I assume that black fliter thingy needs to be replaced cuase its so old ?

My line stats are as follows. Current modem TP LinkTD-W8960N

Status: Showtime
Retrain Reason: 4
Max: Upstream rate = 1280 Kbps, Downstream rate = 25728 Kbps
Path: 0, Upstream rate = 1208 Kbps, Downstream rate = 22027 Kbps

Link Power State: L0
Mode: ADSL2+
Trellis: U:ON /D:ON
Line Status: No Defect
Training Status: Showtime
Down Up
SNR (dB): 9.6 13.3
Attn(dB): 7.0 3.8
Pwr(dBm): 0.0 12.8

I was told to use a 50 meter extension cord to fix disconnects problems years ago becuase the cabinet is on the property. I guess it is this thing ? I sometimes see a chorus guy open it.


Would being so close allow me to get faster than 10Mbits upload on VDSL with Snap? Or is that the max upload limit of VDSL ?

I cant get UFB which is due to be installed in June.

Thanks.
