Hi
If a line has a history of noise itnerference on adsl, is it probable the same isues will disrupt vdsl2?
My history is on adsl/adsl2 my line had 50db attenuation and synced between about 5000 and 6400kbit depending on line conditions. I had noice interference during weekdays at office hours, where the line would get an initial huge noise spike around 7am followed by on and off moderate noise burst until about 5-6pm. I had no idea if was local or not, I am hoping was not local so the source is now near the fiber part not copper. At weekends the line could hold 3-4db margin with a 7000+kbit sync even at night, this gives you an idea the extenct of the noise, but during the noise at say 7am on a monday the line would sync at maybe 3000kbit. (if I synced it at the time). On any isp that used DLM the service was a nightmare. It was useable when I was with ukonline who used SRA.
Ok so basically that line got cancelled shortly after ukonline closed shop, as I was annoyed losing SRA and since then I have been on virgin media cable, no noise issues that xDSL has but they have oversubscription issues aka congestion.
Fast forward to now and 2-3 days ago infinity is now available, no other FTTC isp's yet, I have put in an order.
The line is estimated at 65mbit down and 20mbit up, I know where the cabinet is and have guestimated the line route from the cabinet based on address checks I did on the BTw checker, lets just say the copper run is now probably 10% of the original run from the exchange so in my case there should be a huge difference. There is a even nearer cabinet across the road from me I can see from my window but that isnt my cabinet, I am praying there is no noise source between my cabinet and me, but there is business's on the copper run including a petrol station.
Given what I have said and what should now be a much lower attenuation on the line, is it likely I will keep noise issues or not? the occurances I read about on the net seem much lower so I have assumed vdsl has higher resistance.
