Ok so VDSL was activated last night but somebody either forgot or was on holiday and did not configure the settings for me to authenticate over PPPOE. So now i have VDSL2 but can't do anything on it until 27th apparently.

Will post some shots of line stats after this issue is resolved.

Any 1 here in Wholesale that can configure the port or have contacts? Would really appreciate it.

Your ISP is the one who has these details,

Have already contacted them, not much they can do until Wholesale are back on the 27th.

Wholesale have nothing to do with this. Authentication is handled by the ISP, they're the ones who will provide you with a PPPoE username and password that's configured in hardware in their network.

Not necessarily. I had a situation where I had VDSL2 line sync however the PPP wasn't connecting. Our ISP had to get Telecom Wholesale to rebuild something (I think the PVC, I'm not sure if it was and even what PVC is).

PVC is the virtual circuit through telecoms network and affects tunneling to your ISP. It gets rebuilt automatically if you get a new service provisioned or if faults have to reset it because of PPP problems.

Time to find a new industry!

Yea, thats pretty much what is going on, line sync but no ppp.

Sounds like they don't have the correct CVID from wholesale.

Customer Vlan ID, , They will then also have a Server Provider Vlan ID (SVID) which is determined by which exchange/cabinet you're off so they will need to know both.

Assuming any authentication mechanism on the ISP side is working, that's the info most likely missing.

Its all up and running now. Haven't had much time to test out the connection but can definitely see the latency is more stable for Voip and gaming. Awesome speeds for copper.

DLM has been doing its thing, was connected at 50mb/s but had to power off the fritz box and looks like it chose another profile. Should improve over the next few days.

Going to try and push for 17a bandplan next week.

Would have thought the downstream bitloading would have gone upto 8Mhz atleast

Some telnet info. For FritzBox only.

You can also adjust the SNR Training margin.

DownstreamMarginOffset=-90 which is -9dB you can set upto 9dB each way, -90 to 90. New sync should show 2-3dB SNRM

If you are interested in changing this let me know and ill put up the commands.
