Apologies for being slightly non-expert...
FTTC, quiet rural cabinet, 52 down, 9 up. Replaced my HG612 with a VMG8324-B10A in bridged modem-only mode.
When I replaced it, my speed collapsed to 26/8. I left it for 24 hours and restarted. 23/8. Eeek!
Q. What should my strategy be? Leave it (my line never seems to re-sync) or re-start the connection after a certain period?
Another oddity - when I restarted the connection on the VMG8324 (using xdslctl command --down / --up), the max obtainable speed showed 26 (with a SNR of 4) and it took a couple of minutes to rise... Is that why it insists on syncing at 20 something? Is my modem dodgy in any way?
Stats below (the resyncs recorded were my re-starting my HG612 as it was unstable).
Many thanks!
