jeffreyh: No,

Thats no very good your stats should also include attenuation, noise margin and mode. Is that all you got from your router or did you just provide a summary. Since you only have 2M down it explains your speedtest results

 

DravidDavid: "Line Rate: 2016 Kbps / 736 Kbps"

This means your highest possible download rate will be 2.016Mb/s or roughly 252KB/s

This is a very poor connection which can be explained by the massive line attenuation. Its 47db. Which means you are roughly 3403 meters away from the exchange. Considering optimal conditions, you should be able to get around 5Mb/s.

Hopefully Telecom will help on this one??

Apart from the obvious things, the best thing to do here is to phone the helpdesk and ask if they can run a test on your line. Be clear that you are querying the quality of the ADSL line, and you are not calling about Bigtime performance.

Things you can check yourself...

- Try another filter/splitter, they have been known to just fail.
- Check to make sure all phones (including your sky box) have filters.
- Try plugging into the master jack if you can.
- Unplug all other devices (including Sky) and see if that helps.
- Do you have a monitored alarm - these are often hardwired into the cabling in the roof and may not have a filter.
- Have you got another router you can test to see if it gives the same results?

The Rouer is brand new. I wanted to eliminate that as a source of the problem. We do not have Sky or an Alarm here. All phone jacks have filters and changing filters has not helped.

I feel that this IS a BT problem because it only happens when I switch to BT. =)

Hmmm, knowing about the network I can say with reasonable certainty that the physical line characteristics can not be affected by the BB plan you are subscribed to. The ADSL port profile for our Bigtime customers are the same as those for the Pro plans.

One way to test this would be to ask for the helpdesk to enable interleaving (if you currently have it off) or disable it (if it's on now)... That should result in the ADSL profile being changed on your port - the only change will be to the interleaving - the other parameters are the same.

looks to me like your line attenuation is causing your slow speeds.
47db noise margin would suggest that the physical wiring either in your house or between your house and the exchange is faulty.
That OR your very far away from the exchange..

Thanks, that is a very low noise figure. I will have to track down the issue. Thanks for all the forensic work guys!
