Hi everyone!
Long-time reader, first time poster
I recently switched from BT Infinity Option 2 (that's the fast one, right?) to Vodafone Broadband. After 2 weeks of battling with their Customer Services and their shonky router which dropped its connection twice-daily, I finally extracted my PPPoE details from them and switched back to my Openreach Huawei HG612 modem.
Now, I'd had a solid 5.7MByte/sec download, and 1.2-1.5MByte/sec upload. Unfortunately, I can't give sync rates as I never unlocked the Huawei to extract that info. In 4 years, Infinity had been extremely reliable. Steady speeds and I could count the service drops in 4 years on one hand.
So, on Vodafone, I'm only seeing ~3.2MByte/sec downloads and ~0.8MByte/sec uploads.
I've now unlocked the HG612 with the latest G.INP-capable firmware and set up DSLstats/MyDSLWebStats monitoring. Thanks to the author, Eric, I managed to get it running on my FreeBSD server (I'll take some time later to package it up for submission to FreeBSD's Ports repository for others to use).
Unfortunately, I've now run out of knowledge
I know something's not right, but can't discern enough from the voluminous information to conclude what's going on with my line speeds.
If any of the smart people here wouldn't mind taking a gander at my stats, I'd very much appreciate it. My MyDSLWebStats username is displaced.
(I know my line is reasonably long, so I'm not expecting miracles, but I'd really like to get the most out of what I've got!)
Cheers,
Chris
