Evening all,
I have been running DSLstats for the past 24hrs after successfully setting up a VMG8924-B10a as a bridged modem alongside my Sky SR203 router.
Backstory to this is since moving into new house 18 months ago my connection (on Sky Superfast FTTC 80-20 with min speed guarantee of 42mb) went from around 55mb/20mb, steadily down to 44/20 where it has been for last 3-4 months (DLM sync randomly at night would bring a drop and always sync'd at likes of 43999/19999 to show it was banded). I recently attempted to replace the Sky SR203 router with a TP-Link VR2800 - not to fix the line issues but for better Wi-Fi. However after initially sync'ing the same as the sky router, DLM kicked in each of the first 3 nights and dropped it down each night eventually to 34999/19999 which it is now. After this I changed the firmware back a version and it seemed to steady up and remained same for a week with little errors shows in basic router stats.
I tried to get DSLstats working with the TP-Link but failed, TP-Link support was awful and so I decided to return the TP-Link and put the Sky Router back in. As the speed dropped below min guaranteed i was able to do online tests to confirm and the automated system said I need an engineer visit, which is booked for the 28th October.
In the meantime thanks to help on here I identified the best setup was probably to get a dedicated modem and then look at a wireless router. I then realised the SR203 would be ok to use in WANoE mode with a modem so i bought a VMG8924-B10a. I plan to replace the SR203 but only after the engineer visit and hopefully a DLM reset to get me back to better speeds.
So here we are, my stats are below and I am keen to understand if this shows anything that I can raise with the engineer, the banding of the line previously hints at something which would be good to address. So anything that jumps out here would be good to know about.
Thanks
