So is this stable for 24/7 use now?, and theres a GUI again?. EDIT: Sorry for my ignorance, I get frustrated when having to read loads of stuff, don't know why, I guess im one of thos people whos brains are always active never stop working things out etc.

I have not tried Howlingwolf's version with the GUI - still using the standard BT version as updated automatically. However, as far as the new BLOB is concerned, my line has now been stable for 46 days and counting, after two resyncs in the first week. DS max attainable rate and SNRM are slightly better than the best the original firmware ever managed.

I have been using Howlingwolf's GUI version for a few weeks now, with no adverse effects.

[Chrysalis]

I left the new firmware in place and errors have calmed down, but still about 70% higher than the previous firmware.

I am amazed I even have around the same sync speed given this new blob disables numerous tones.

I went back to Asbo's blob a few weeks ago and after binning the powerline adapters all seems back to normal, I don't and can't see any real benefit on the new firmware, think Asbo's is rock solid in my opinion there seems less error's overall and it's not a knee jerk reaction it feels better on my line or modem 

[Chrysalis]

agreed its better I will be downgrading at some point.

[boe323]

Ok... I kinda agree on asbo's firmware mod, it does seem to perform better at first glance... however... ive left bt's pushed update alone and now its settled I have a higher sync speed than ever before which of course gives me more errors, seems to handle errors really well... I get pooh loads RSCORR/RS and ES errors at night which should trigger a resync but never does. I think if you five it chance you will see the difference. So I can go ahead and flash the modded firmware with the GUI then... COOL!. I do have the new hhb5 but am still running it through the modem... I guess I was thinking backup more than actual 24/7 use on the built in vdsl. I shall have have to wait to flash the firmware though... need my attainable rate to rise again or ill get pooh sync after the flash. Oh yes... hhb4 being donated to the cause... maybe you brainy guys would like to rip it a part?. Its got to be for testing/research purposes though... not for home use.

[NewtronStar]

I have reflashed to Howlingwolf's firmware to-night the sync rate is higher but will let you know how it pans out over a month, thought this was the rebuilt GUI version but don't seem to be able to access the Modem GUI 

[boe323]

Ive been connected 51days, the new bt updated firmware is defo the best in the long run, I really want to flash the modded gui version but cant bring myself to disconnect... ive never been in sync this long ever. How long do you have to wait for interleave to switch off?, isn't 52 days enough?

[Ronski]

It might never switch off, depends on what's affecting your line. I seem to get long periods without interleaving, and then periods with it, 499 days attached.

[boe323]

Lol... I just noticed that the modem is stuck in a loop on  49 days 17 hours 2 min 45 sec, seems the counter is stuck, I know ive been up longer than that.

I guess I might aswell flash the modded version. I have to pull the power first right to send a signal to the dlm?, does it work like that with this modem. How long do I leave it before plugging back in? EDIT: Ok all sorted, got the gui back, bt agent seems to be missing on both experimental firmware, so opted for non btagent anyway, seems good, bit more sync and speed tests are so stable now, I guess the bt agent was polling all the time?.

[roseway]

Yes, that's a known bug (or feature). It corresponds approximately to 2^31 milliseconds, so the value is probably held internally in a signed 32-bit variable.

[boe323]

Fantastic work... never had such a stable speed test ever, needle just stays at 50.00mbps no fluctuation. BT agent must of influenced it. Does my line look ok for the first 3 hours?, t many errors or is it average?

Does my line look ok for the first 3 hours?

The errors don't seem to excessive and quite good, you may get a few retrains after powering off the Modem in the wee small hours at 4:00am it could be retrain reason 1 or 2 and nothing to worry about
