Any insider info as to when G.INP may me enabled on ECI lines?

I do miss this feature especially with VOIP calls.

[forceware]

Agreed it did nothing but good for my online gaming.

Meh - bye bye G.INP 

Lost 4mbps downstream, my ping has almost doubled and by tomorrow I'll probably be banded once the DS CRC's start rolling in when it gets dark. My stats before and after are on MDWS for anyone interested.

Presumably BT will simply leave the hundreds of ECI cabinets as they are now - it obviously costs them too much money in manhours to rollout new technologies to sub standard cabinets.

I too had no issues with G.INP on my line, though it wasn't too bad before I had G.INP applied, just a little noisy.

Just had my resync that stuck me back on fastpath so I'm guessing my graphs will be plastered with downstream errors again

Well just over 3 days since G.INP was removed and Interleaving applied I'm back on FastPath as of 4pm today. Strange time I thought?
Still from my G.INP days I'm down 5k on max and about 3k on actual and ping seems to be around 12ms instead of 10 but it is teatime I suppose.

Maybe ECI will do a swap for some V41s 

Should be fixable though its not like everyone has had problems.

Having spent an entire career applying logical thought in a problem solving role, trying to understand what is going on here has me beaten.

Before G.INP I had almost 4 years of fastpath connection with 70 to 80 error seconds per day. The broadcom based HG612 gave a consistently higher sync than anything Lantiq based, by about 3 Mb or so.

G.INP is rolled out and the HG612 takes a 3Mb hit, whilst Lantiq based kit does the opposite. Still on fastpath, but now zero error seconds. So I switch from having the HG612 in front of the Draytek to using the VDSL connection on the Draytek itself. Net result is more or less same speed but lose the 70 to 80 error secs - so really no difference either way.

Now I see all these reports of people with high error rates losing G.INP that has greatly improved their connection, whilst G.INP remains steadfastly active on my line when really it isn't doing much at all.

Go figure!

My type B HH5 just rebooted today and it looks like DLM has capped my speed to 65Mbs but my maximum download speed has gone from 71Mbs to 78Mbs and my lines has never been that high with a broadcom chipset

I presume your on a Huawei cabinet, or you'd have lost G.INP too recently. This thread is related to the ECI cabinet G.INP rollout - which has been troublesome to say the least. The Huawei rollout is complete and there are no problems with it, hence your line gets to keep it.

[atkinsong]

Nope - if you check back you will see I am very much on an ECI cab!!

[S.Stephenson]

DLM took action and lowered my INP so it still seems functional for me.

When I got the e-mail I was expecting it to have gone.

[skyeci]

Just warming you up for the main event to come!

Well, talk about tempting fate! Just had resync and G.INP gone. Left me with interleaving; Attainable 52700; Actual 46353.

So a loss of 6Mb compared to pre G.INP. Words fail me!

[skyeci]

Lol... that's class - sorry to hear of your loss

We shoud start a support group thread, for those left with significantly worse connections after the G.INP removal
