You should check your IP Profile. You can do that here: https://windows.mouselike.org/be/index.asp?DoAction=BrasChecker
um....results from the link was;
Looks like BT refused to test, possibly because a speed test or BRAS check has been run recently which prevents this tool from working. Try again in a few hours.
Debug: BT no BRAS info
weird since i didnt run the test before...
{UPDATE}
ran test again and got;
Number: ************
The current Downstream BRAS rate is: 49.22 Mbps
The current Upstream BRAS rate is: 20 Mbps
so how am i losing 10mb down and 9mb up ??
any suggestions on ;
(Modem Advanced settings)
Modem Firewall on/off ? (on on modem and off on router or visa versa ?)
Modem IGMP snoop/proxy on/off ? (router has these options too ?)
Modem QoS on/off ? (modem says "enabled?" my router has this option but is set to "disabled")
(Modem Basic Settings)
ATM values (i havent touched these from default) im on BT infinity 2 (up to 76mb)
i found these setting listed by someone which differ somewhat from the default modem settings , should i be using these below in my modem/router configuration ?
Forget ATM, you want PTM.
Under PTM you need ptm1 with DSL latency Path 0 and PTM priority Normal
Under WAN you want ptm1.101 with WAN connection ticked
Service List INTERNET
No port binding
Connection mode ROUTE
Connection type PPPOE
WAN 802.1q ticked
VLAN ID 101
WAN 802.1p ticked
Value 2
NAT ticked
Username bthomehub@btbroadband.com
Password bt
in my current setup could i use these settings (above) and then change my router to connection type (Auto) and let the modem do the PPPoE connection, to basically save the router from doing it (i.e. better to let the modem do it right from the start as such ?)
