Title: errors ??
Post by: jeffbb on June 03, 2009, 08:02:47 PM
Hi

Just a question on errors and target SNR .

 WAN:   2 days, 04:43:44
 LAN:   29 days, 02:20:50
 
CRC:  884
LOS:  2
LOF:  18
ES :  12

The errors above are the total errors in  29 days, 02:20:50

the CRC errors mostly happened when there were some line problems and disconnections,when BT were working on the line , in bursts of over  200 over a short period . There was 3 re-synchs  that I know of . EDIT more than26 days ago
LOF  happened in 2 blocks  9 each time


This is last 26hrs +

Previous 1 day time = 24 hours 0 sec
SF  = 5082201
CRC = 0
LOS = 0
LOF = 0
ES  = 0

Typically
I might get 1 or 2 CRC a day and the odd ES perhaps every other day .

My question is . I have a quiet line and yet the Target has NOT dropped from 15db in 29 days (I am tweaked to 12db using routerstats , won't take it lower ). Is this because of the outstanding 880+ errors . Would it be better to reboot to reset them ?.Would that speed up the reset of the target SNR.?

Regards Jeff

In theory it shouldnt make any difference.
Its your router that keeps the count of your downstream errors, which is how they are cleared on reboot or resync
Upstream errors are recorded by the dslam..  hecne why rebooting will not always clear them (mine have been racking up for well over a year and I cant clear them).
Obviously the dslam and router will share info..  so if the DLM is also taking the downstream errors, it will get these from your router but presumably 'store' the info elsewhere which cant be cleared.
