Hows the errors looking tonight @calep?

My side is looking pretty clear...

Seems ok at the moment - stats below

Do you know how the MAX vs Data Rate are calculated? Do you guys thing we'll see much benefit from a master filter?

Definitely will improve things based off the spectrum.

Enjoy your faster sync rate too, not an april fools trick being played on you.. (61944/5952)

Per the CRC's match what i was seeing, which is strange to your initial spot.

Will see how it goes as things settle in now...

The CRCs only appear in bulk when the asus router fails to connect. Will keep you posted if it happens in the next couple of days.

Sync speed increased a bit by changing outlet so I'm thinking a filter will improve further.

Cheers

try not to reboot, see what DLM does to you now :)

still do recommend that master filter will likely cleanup the bridgetap.

you may end up back on the 12dB profile, however the changes on their way to DLM are looking right up the ally to improve your connection substantially too.

Hi

Internet has dropped out now (dropped last night and been off for about 24hrs).

Looks like DSL comes up and then won't connect.

Do you need stats / logs to help diagnose?

Cheers
Charlie

Scratch what i DM'd to you, i'll check out the PPP logs when i get into the office as that is what this seems to be.

Master filter installed. Also found a rogue jack-point with old phone plugged in.

Alas I can't fix this old school ETP :(

can't that ETP simply be replaced with a... reasonable one?

That master filter install is toteslegit there @coffeebaron I love the way it's just hanging by it's wires off the ETP so gracefully in the wind. Awesome job dude.

The only problem with those DP's is when they get opened and the cabling isn't tucked in to the loop in the middle. Other than that as long as people don't wrap the wire around and around the screw terminal then no problem. Screw terminals only suck when the single copper crosses over itself, then the screw id tightened down and the "cross over" can some times cut through the core. Just a nice simple hook is all that's need.
