The problem is what if I am away and suddenly there is a power cut or a power loss and kept doing it might end DLM reduced speed or even banded again. Do u think it safe to shutdown modem whilke I am away on holiday or few days away?
I would be tempted to do so if I were you. Quite a lot of lines can get spiky SNRM if they come back up after a power failure. Most people wouldnt notice, but since it was the effects during power failure that got you banded and knowing how worried you get if DLM takes any action. It would probably be best in your case. DLM wont care if your line is shut down for a few days as lots of people turn their router off completely when they go on holiday.
Kitz, I do hope your line will go back to 80/20 soon with your cabinet (I am not sure if your is with ECI cabinet?) and hope Openreach will enabled G.INP on your line soon. And for others too.
Yes ECI, so no G.INP and no 3dB. Line would probably cope fine at 3dB and it would take me back up to 80Mbps. I still am sometimes able to sync at full 80Mbps, but its short-lived because its more of a case of my modem having syn'd before my cross talkers modem and then I can sit at 3dB SNRM for a while until I have to reboot my modem for some reason or other.
I also have a weird daily error spike, which is what sometimes triggers DLM for me, most of the time its OK and goes back to normal, but on occasion it will stick until I reboot the modem. Up until fairly recently if I was going to be out all day then I would turn the modem off. Now I have something in place with dslstats that alerts me if the error spike sticks. The email alert goes to my mobile and using my mobile. I can now reboot my modem remotely using Kasa and a TP-Link HS100 smart plug.
Gawd knows though when Openreach are going to do g.inp and 3dB on the ECI's. Its dragged on a lot longer than any of us could have imagined.
Vectoring would be even better. I saw someone on here recently whose line length was double mine yet with vectoring he was able to get about the same speed at me. I think crosstalk has cost me nrly 40Mbps so far.... and even more when my line gets INP. Thats more than a third of my original line rate gone due to FEXT.
