Well, the synchronisation speeds are the best you can get at this moment in time . . . Whether or not there may be potential for further improvements will require close scrutiny of a few days of statistics by one of those more versed in the intricacies of G.993.2 circuits, such as Bald_Eagle1.

You've already done more than you're supposed to, as everything before the NTE5 belongs to OpenReach. I wouldn't pay too much attention to what the "engineer" said. Anyone who puts a master socket so close to a power socket that they are practically touching shouldn't have too much attention paid to them.

The answer to your question is probably yes. the line is much more stable now, without any faults showing and within dslchecker range, chances of OR being able to do anything that would make any worthwhile difference are practically nil.

Your downstream looks to be in the right area say about 2 Mbps off but your upstream is a bit low, I'd expect about 5-6 Mbps. I think that is down to the poor quality cable between the BT80A and the master socket which is probably preventing it syncing at those figures.

But given your estimate is

VDSL Range A (Clean)   29.7   22.4   4.9   3.2   --   Available   --   --
VDSL Range B (Impacted)   22.3   10.4   3.8   1.1   --   Available   --   --

you're still in Range A

Ok, so would you say my upstream is low, too? I get 42.7/7.9.

[Dray]

Are your stats on MDWS?

[j0hn]

you're clean high estimates are 34.2 / 7.4
wish I got above my estimates 

[William Grimsley]

Yeah, it is pretty cool. I just throught the upstream seemed slightly low.

Just had a re-sync, the sync has shot up past the attainable - but I've noticed a huge increase in FECs, are these actually a problem or normal with interleaved line?

Last night I moved my DECT phone base station away from the power line, and in the past couple of evenings have been experimenting with Powerline adaptors on/off (as the Mrs needs them on to watch iPlayer).

[William Grimsley]

Woah, something is drastically wrong there, your Downstream SNR Margin is now at 0.4 dB which is extremely low, I think the Downstream FEC figure has got stuck because of this, I'd do a manual resync immediately.

FEC's aren't an issue especially with Downstream G.INP enabled, but your router is working incredibly hard to keep the line stable and surprised to say the line hasn't lost sync yet.

[matt12321]

What do the three traffic lights mean on MyDSLWebStats?

I'm not at home so can't do anything, but interesting to see how it's jumped so high (maybe too high?).

[William Grimsley]

Currently, your line is perfoming very well to say how much strain it's under. You could leave it, but I wouldn't.

[burakkucat]

. . . and in the past couple of evenings have been experimenting with Powerline adaptors on/off (as the Mrs needs them on to watch iPlayer).

Usage of the "powerline adaptors" ("home plugs" / "whatever the current name") can clearly be seen by the sudden upwards jump in the FECs when examining the circuit statistics via MDWS . . . 

[matt12321]

Will try again tonight, but seeing as I now have eleventy billion FEC errors on my line, do a few more make any actual difference if not causing CEC etc?

[William Grimsley]

It'll be making a slight difference, especially to the HG612!

[William Grimsley]

Just checked your line, CRC's appearing now and lots of them, the Downstream SNR Margin dropped to 0.1 dB, not sure how you've still got a working service.
