750 m+ is a long way for VDSL - you have done well

(even if you assume the best-case scenario that the line length is only 750m)

could be a little better though i dont know by how much, your near the range of coverage, but also could be a lot worse

I'd be very happy if my line could do that. Syncs at 20/4.5Mbps on a good day. :(

Since I am not running my 7390 on DSL, I do not get the page for the DSL data. But a bit of googling shows that it should be here in a 7490:

Main menu => Internet => DSL Information

There are multiple tabs there. One of them should show you the physical connection data and VDSL profile and so on.

The fritz is my favorite vdsl modem for details.

Include a screenshot of the specturm please.

I actually made a tool for pulling Extra minor details out, its in the vdsl thread. Although i havent tested it for newer firmware changes.
