Here is an alternative source for a new NTE5/A.

[JoshShep]

Thanks everyone. If I manage to get an Engineer visit, I'll ask him to replace the NTE5. If not I'll upgrade myself.

[JoshShep]

WTH, just had a look at my DSL stats while at work and see just before 3pm my SNR margin shot right up to 6.8 the highest its ever been. No one has been at home today so its nothing in our property that's causing interference. Then it just went right back down. Clearly something isn't right here!!!

[Alex Atkin UK]

Yes indeed:

That's because SpeedOf.me is extremely inaccurate IMO as during the test it shows peak speeds of 81.29Mbit for my connection which is impossible.  When I was on Digital Region 100Mbit it would usually come up well short of my real-world performance.

The only speedtest I really trust is http://dslreports.com/speedtest as it seems to consistently report around the speed I can get in real-world scenarios.

If the SNRM went up then this was the result of a temporary reduction in interference. A common reason for this is when a local crosstalk disturber goes offline for a short period.

Just for peace of mind, I've unhooked the extension going to the secondary socket.

The first thing I noticed is Interleaving has dropped to 1501, not a big deal I know, also the attenuation has dropped 0.1, again nothing to brag about, but one thing I have noticed is the Power (dBm) has increased from 1.1 to 2.6. Why is this?

Does anyone know why the Power (dBm) has increased from 1.1 to 2.6 after removing the extension socket, the modem re synced itself last night lost some more downstream speed.

Sorry no.   I know power can be turned up during bit-swap process.

[JoshShep]

Sorry no.   I know power can be turned up during bit-swap process.

Not sure then, is is a positive change it going up?

[JoshShep]

This makes me happy

Just got few questions, I have noticed a lot of people on ECI cabs Kitz included, have recently all synced at the same speed 79987kbps. Why is this? Also a lot of users also have one amber light showing does this mean the lines are going to intervene? And one last question, how many ES are we allowed in general per 24 hours before DLM kicks in?

Thanks everyone!

[Dray]

The 79987 appears to be the max sync for a non-interleaved connection with G.INP off.

[ejs]

ILQ of Amber is supposed to be indicate an acceptable level of performance, so no DLM change.

[Chrysalis]

Regarding power level, I think currently the DS power is bugged in modem stats (always seems to match US power), and the US power varies everytime line is synced which affects US snr (this may not apply to those without UPBO).  e.g. I had circa 9db snrm 28mbit attainable US last week, when I resynced I now have circa 12db snrm and 30mbit attainable.

[JoshShep]

Thanks everyone!
