I have found that occasionally after off/on resetting the router, one single tone may show a spike of bits/tone of 30 or 40 (which needs an enormous S/N and is (I assume) is outside the ADSL specification range.)
Restarting Dslstats doesn't clear it and I didn't want to restart the router again so soon. The problem sorts itself out in time.

It's certainly a false figure - each tone can carry up to 15 bits. You can see the raw data from the modem under Telnet Data -- > Bitloading, and this will presumably show the wrong data on the relevant tone. I don't think DSLstats could be responsible for this, but I'm prepared to be shown otherwise.

Thanks for the pointer.
It seemed to me very unlikely that a fault which happens once in a blue moon can occur twice in as many minutes each time Dslstats is re-loaded. As the saying is " (same) garbage in (same) garbage out.
As it or something like it might happen to other people, it seems a good idea to air it.

Yes indeed.
