Disabling Annex M

(1/3) > >>

Hi,

After being around a long time ago in the adsl game, I have fell into the unfortunate house purchase with terrible internet and am back in it.

In addition to that, I have also skimped on broadband am on NowTV's £18 a month service using their supplied modem/router.

It looks like im on Annex M as my upload has increased and lowered my download. It also doesnt look like im on fastpath anymore and I only use this for gaming.

Support dont know what I mean so Im looking to see if there is any router based options to turn off Annex M. I cant for the life of me remember but think a DG834GT used to do this?

The router also needs to work on sky based auth. Any recommendations for me to get off Annex M?

Thanks

That would be very strange, I've not heard of Annex M in years and assumed nobody used it since Be Broadband got bought out.

HPsauce:
Didn't Sky buy Be, maybe it's a legacy of that somehow?

Alex Atkin UK:
I'd assume its a glitch, as you had to request it explicitly on Be and it only really worked on very short lines.  I don't think it let you sync using anything else when it was enabled though.

ahh maybe im mistaken.

I actually was on sky at this property before for the first year. I sync'd at 17/800.

Since switching to nowtv, its 15/1.2 - could it be a interleaving thing perhaps?

Plugging the old sky router in gives the same 15/1.2. Sky also had my snr down to 3db where now it never moves from 6.

Not really noticed anything wrong with the line besides the ping increase.
