After all these years I finally have VDSL!
« on: October 22, 2016, 10:23:37 AM »

Needless to say, after countless years on a slow ADSL connection, it has changed my life.
And considering the distance, the speed and stability has been very impressive indeed!

Estimated D-Side Length: 1.2km

BT Wholesale Estimate:
VDSL Range A (Clean)    26.7    18    5.8    3.8    --    Available    --    --
VDSL Range B (Impacted)    21.5    10.2    4.7    1.4    --    Available    --    --

Actual sync speed:
33.41 Mbps

Because of a glitch in the checker when I initially ordered (it was estimating 10Mbps max!), I am on the long distance "Unlimited Faster Broadband" product with BT and upload is capped at 2Mbps.

Speed test over LAN:

The upload speed on the unlimited faster broadband product is not limited to 2MB if your line can support more - have a look at https://community.bt.com/t5/BT-Infinity-Speed-Connection/Unlimited-Faster-Broadband-Max-Upload-speed/td-p/1605310/page/4 - and contact the BT forum moderators to get it changed

Excellent, thanks that's good to know. I'll get it checked out.

Some technical stats from the Home Hub 6. Seems ok as far as I can tell?

Data rate: 7.66 kbps / 32.81 kbps  (Not sure why it says kbps, presuming it's a bug...)
Maximum data rate: 7656 / 32810
Noise margin: 5.7 / 6.1
Line attenuation: 27.5
Signal attenuation:
VPI / VCI: 0/38
Modulation: G_993_2_ANNEX_B
