Moved in - huge humming on the phone line to the point where I couldnt use it for more than about 3 mins without getting a splitting headache. Internet was syncing ok at around 1200/150ish.. After three weeks of waiting and ringing and whatnot they fixed the line mostly (still a little humming but its within my acceptable level since I use VOIP for all my calls anywaya!). When fixed the internet jumped up in speed to around 2200-3000/180-760ish. Ive done speed tests and the upload definately seems to be working at the rated speed (uploads at around 60k, downloads at 200-260ish).
Now the strange thing is it normally only connects at around 150ish. It wasnt until I stuck in a new modem (Dynalink RTA1335) that it started connecting faster - dont get me wrong, I would much rather it be faster than slower! The speeds just dont seem to really be in sync in any way like I'd expect them to be!
These are the stats from the modem:
Line Mode | ADSL2+ | Line State | <!-- hide if (linestate == 'Down') document.write("Down"); else if (linestate == 'Handshaking') document.write("Handshaking"); else if (linestate == 'Training') document.write("Training"); else document.write("Show Time"); // done hiding --> Show Time |
Line Power State | L0 | Line Up Time | 03:06:13:09 |
Line Coding | Trellis On | Line Up Count | 1 |
Statistics | Downstream | Upstream |
Line Rate | 2198 Kbps | 762 Kbps |
Attainable Line Rate | 2836 Kbps | 762 Kbps |
Noise Margin | 12.6 dB | 12.2 dB |
Line Attenuation | 59.0 dB | 35.5 dB |
Output Power | 16.7 dBm | 12.4 dBm |
Is it really worth my while ringing up and seeing if theres a fault or does this look and sound sort of correct. Ive moved roughly 500m down the road, was getting an 8mb connection before.
Any suggestions would be good.
