Now you just need to upgrade the firmware to the Asbo SP10 version and you are ready to monitor your line.

Already done. I am using it on an ADSL line because the Broadcom 6368 chipset performs well.

Do the stats monitoring scripts work with ADSL?

[burakkucat]

Ah, no, not all of them.    Bald_Eagle1's scripts are VDSL2 specific.

Oops. I've just realised we are hijacking BlackEagle's post concerning his FTTC connection. 

[GigabitEthernet]

Sorry Blackeagle!

[Blackeagle]

Its ok guys 

[Bald_Eagle1]

Hi BE,

How's the connection holding up now you've had chance to thrash it for a while?

Any issues (that you are aware of)?


Cheers,

BE

You mean like my speedtests being all over the place, depending on where I do them.  Upload is pants etc etc ??

Yeah, all of them !!

Its a lot faster than I had before, and thats very noticable on my wired desktop, but its not blindingly fast or exactly what I was hoping for.  Perhaps a better test will be when both my teenage sons are at home on their xboxes and wife is on laptop.  We'll see maybe then the benefit of more bandwidth, but currently, Beagle is a little disappointed with his results 

Of course, some connection stats would aid that greatly, as I would have something better to go on than a vanilla speedtest !!!

Oh dear 

Personally, I prefer to use speedtest.net as it appears to be the most consistent & it stores results (& has its own graphs) without the need to register.

Can you still run the BT speed test that reports IP Profiles?

Hopefully you will, especially if any of them or you regularly dowload large files/films etc.

No joy with obtaining a HG612 at the moment then?

Not to try and advertise, but I have an HG612 that was bought for an ADSL connection, but I no longer need it and it is obviously completely compatible with fibre. It includes the original box, with all the cables, it was running the SP10 firmware and I have unlocked it.

I have only had it a few days so if you would like it, I would be happy to put it on eBay as a buy it now offer for £22 plus £4.99 postage?

Let me know if you are interested.

Surely you and Blackeagle could perform the transaction without the use of eBay? You just need to start with a PMs to introduce yourselves to each other, etc.

[Blackeagle]

Oooh errrr, so many replies 

@arobertson545, yeah I would be interested in that, PM me and we'll go from there mate 

@BE1, I'm registered on speedtest.net and have done quite a few tests on there (and speed.io and TT and BT).  Sadly I can only use the beta test on BT which doesn't give any IP profile info, but does give a similar speed to the TT tester.  Speedtest.net I feel is more 'real world' and consistently gives me results about 8meg below the BT/TT tests. 

Stats are the thing lacking here obviously.  If my speedtests are 90% of sync then great, although I'd be looking to SNRM & Attn figures to explain why they are what they are. Obviously, its hard to judge without something definitive to go on, but my early speedtests were much better than now (10meg difference).  This may just be DLM, but its hard to say ATM.

Going from a connection where I could monitor everything to one where I have no idea what is going on has been a major shock to me.

As an aside, I have noted from my router logs that ACS is changing things each day.  I have asked on the TT forum for details of what it may be doing.  TR-069 was never enabled on my ADSL line.

Please post a snippet of your router log that shows some of the typical ACS activity.

Why not look into you router's settings and configure exactly what you want?

My router is configured how I want it, I just want to know what TT ACS feels it needs to change !!  As yet, I have had no reply as to what it may be doing, and whilst I disabled it on all my ADSL routers, currently I have left it enabled on my fibre connection.....for the time being anyway.

Currently it seems to change things when a reboot of the router is carried out.  This is unfortunately needed every 24hrs currently as wireless connectivity is lost, followed shortly by ethernet.  Even the routers GUI is inaccessible.  TT have trialled some new firmware which apparently cures this...BE waits impatiently for its release !!

I have done a "diff" of two config files that I have, one from two days ago and one from this evening after my wife rebooted the router due to lost connectivity.

Two differences are apparent, although the second is the current date and time.  So, whats changed ??

Old config
<X_ATP_SyslogConfig Enable="1" Level="debug" DisplayLevel="debug" MainServerPort="514" MinorServerPort="514" LogServerEnable="0" MainServer="" MinorServer="" Clear="0"/>

Current Config
<X_ATP_SyslogConfig Enable="1" Level="debug" DisplayLevel="info" MainServerPort="514" MinorServerPort="514" LogServerEnable="0" MainServer="" MinorServer="" Clear="0"/>

The ACS server has, for some reason, changed the display level of the syslog.  Curious, I can think of no reason to do so other than the fact that it hides the follwing lines in the log, which occur when the router loses connectivity.

Interesting. I would be tempted to see what the wuconfig.c file is supposed to do. 

[asbokid]

It is interesting.  Which router is this, Blackeagle?
