Just to say that a few minutes ago I also had G.INP removed. Like others, I'm now interleaved with associated decrease in DS sync and 8ms increased latency.

It remains to be seen whether DLM will move me to fastpath. It should, as I was moving between green and amber on the MDWS traffic lights on fastpath prior to G.INP.

Also like others, just had another resync and now I'm back on fastpath.

yeah all 48 are bunched together, the coverage from the cabinet is like a U shape rather than O. I am right at the edge of the U, next to the next cabinet.

g.fast will likely be dominated by warez downloaders and people who want to brag I expect.  vdsl2 is fast enough for mainstream.

But then again who knows what marketing can pull off, people can get brainwashed to think they need 100mbps+.

You can have a gigabit service but if the source of your download is capped for QOS its pointless.

Pretty sure people were saying similar things 10 years ago "what's the point in 10Mbit when you can't download from one source at that speed" - I'd encourage you to look outside the box, there is great demand for reliable high bandwidth services in this day and age. Each year only increases the digital divide.

No different to the chap I had on 2 occaisions. He knew nothing of g.inp the 1st and said on the 2nd still knew nothing more about it bar it had been rolled out but as an engineer fixing fibre he had not been given any advice or technical info about g.inp..

If it was cross-talk then the DLM reset wouldn't have cured it and given your speed back.

User wj66 has appeared on mydslstats with g.inp enabled. Looks like it was already enabled as the uploads are only on 26%

[Ronski]

But he's also only got an uptime of 7 hours and 9 minutes, so the big question is did they have g.inp prior to the resync?

[skyeci]

He has got some older data but its too old, shame we cant mail him and ask

Hi skyeci and Ronski
Just comparing the HG612 modem against my Vigor 130 that had g.inp enabled on the 23 March, Vigor sync speed was 51 down and 17 up both the up and down on fast path. will leave HG612 connected for a few days to see how it goes. The Vigor has better sync speed possibly down to the type of chip but unable to download to MyDslWebstats.

Ah ok. Thanks for taking the time to post. I hope you dont lose it as 3 of you remain enabled...

[Alex Atkin UK]

For the love of god Openreach just leave it off on ECI cabs, its been more trouble than its worth.

I don't think the people who gained 10Mbit from G.INP will agree with you there.

[skyeci]

So anyone hazard a guess why even though the rollback was supposed to be completed by the end of last weekend we still have 3 enabled users-seems a bit odd ?
Thanks

Shush now - don't tempt fate as mine is still hanging in there (ayeaye on MDWS)!
Although, I didn't see any speed increase that others have done so I wouldn't be too bothered if it was removed and then fastpath came back after a couple of days of interleaving.

Those remaining may have multi-cast (IPTV) services from their ISP.

Yeah I've got BT TV - but I thought that people who had IPTV had seen G.INP removed as well so possibly no consistency there?

[skyeci]

Thats what I thought too..
