four days and still on fastpath
« on: March 25, 2017, 06:27:12 PM »
Migrated to Plusnet on the 21 March and despite a good number of errors (1200 ES per day) am still on fastpath the overhead is small at 63 kbps and I have quite a few CRC errors.
I assume that if GINP kicks in all am going to get is those 63 kbps however due to GINP taking bandwidth away from the IP profile it will be essentially the same
Is that a correct assumption?

The reasoning is completely wrong, but yes, it will be pretty much the same. As in, it's not going to become 3 times faster.

Absolutely 100% no idea what you mean by "overhead is small at 63 kbps".

Plusnet use the Speed DLM profile so you can have upto 2800 ES per day. There also should be little difference in sync between fastpath and G.INP.

In the HG612 stats the OR value difference between aggregate bit rate and sync rate
2800 seems pretty high with BT it went to 40000 banded and GINP after a few days
The difference in effective throughput is around 0.5 mbps

Sorry no idea if it's because I'm currently at a wedding reception and well on the way to drunk but I can make no sense of your last comment either. Punctuation is wonderful. What did you mean by it went to 40000 banded? 40000 ES?

Plusnet definitely allow upto 2800 ES per 24 hour, same as BT, or any ISP using the Speed DLM profile. ISP's using the Standard profile allow half that (1440). Actually, reading that again I'm slightly off, it's 2880 not 2800.

No 40000 banded was the speed with BT before I migrated to plusnet. 2880 is very high I should stay where I am hopefully
