Bitswap OFF Downstream
« on: October 23, 2015, 03:45:21 PM »


I've updated the Draytek firmware this afternoon, and Bitswap is now off on the downstream.

My speeds have increased - so is this a good thing?

You may have gained a short term advantage in speed but lost stability. See http://www.kitz.co.uk/adsl/adsl_technology.htm#bit_swapping

It's been re-enabled now , but for a short period before , I did have an attainable rate of ~77000 Kbps
