johnr: I live in Bayview and speeds are great just on Pemberton Ave

chevrolux: I didn't think slingshot had any LLU gear? Unless they use the compass stuff. Again, my guess is imbalanced cable pair. Kills adsl like no tomorow.

shadowwalker: thank you all for replying~

The tech guys had visited today and he could not find any problem, so quite obviously it is the cabinetisation cause some kinda influence to my LLU signal...so i m waitting for the negociation between slingshot and vodafone regarding the switch...hopefully i can switch to vodafone cabinet without extra charge~ and keep my slingshot 100G data allowrance~

again~ thank you all and happy new year~

shadowwalker: i said that becoz i m told by the tech guy from Chorus. i m the only one left with LLU in my area. /sop

furymonkey: Sorry for hijacking the thread, but I'm trying to solve connection speed of my own.

I was under the impression LLU was the better connection to be on?  eUBA being the next and UBA being the worst.

But I don't really have a clear idea of what any of that means apart from the fact LLU stands for Local Loop Unbundled....But I may be wrong about that too.

This guys area's has been cabinetised, he should be terminating on the gear in the cabinet but instead his line is passed through back to the exchange and suffers performance degradation because of the stronger signals in the line bundle from the cabinet.

Read sbiddles blog post linked earlier in the thread.

I don't live too far from there myself but I have to say the Chorus tech's in Glenfield are the most useless and uncaring bunch I have ever met, More interested in moving along to the next ticket than actually solving any problem.

I would strongly recommend that you request Slingshot have you Migrated onto the Cabinet due to excessively slow speeds.

Without a direct request from your ISP to do so it becomes a bit of a messy situation especially considering tech's couldn't care less about speed or at least that's the impression I have been given from the tech's in Glenfield.
