Hey guys,
After waiting 3 weeks from the point of installation (FTTC) to work, we've discovered that the connection is only giving half of what it states in the router.
The router shows 70Mbit/s down and 20Mbit/s up, yet speed tests show results from 14Mbit/s to 51Mbit/s.
When I look at the line stats, it would seem the line should be able to cope with 79999Mbit/s.
A guy who lives over the road and is on the same post and cab had his installed after a problem at the cab was fixed and is reporting speed test results of 75Mbit/s. :-o
I'll post the line stats below.
