Interleaved in 2017
« on: December 09, 2017, 06:40:36 PM »

Hi All its been a while scince posting here after i was perscribed a dose of GINP on my line to help subside my latency nightmares. But alas after a house move there back and worse than before.

I had bt infinity1 installed at our new house 1st Dec but due to having boxes stacked evrywhere only just got my desk up on the 7th. Straight away i ran a few ping tests and it was obvious my line was interleaved gettting 24ms to bbc. For no other reason apart from a laugh i did a line fault test on bts website and to my surprise it flashed up saying there was a fault on my line. Even more to my surprise yesterday morning at 8:45 am two Openreach vans turned up and were here till 13:30 testing every junction underground, my kit, drop wire, master sockets until the fault was apparently found on the grey box at the top of the pole. They said it was damp and was jam packed with cables that were stripped back and new grease applied. He also fitted a new socket for me.They told me the voltage on my line should be no more than 6 but it was apparently 30 and possibly drawing volts from another line. After they fixed it he showed me his little tester thingy and all the green ticks showing my line had passed all his tests.  I asked him to do a dlm rest but he needed some number from the job which he didn't have and would try his best (i never got a dlm reset).

today same 24 pings but at around 3pm i got a 'internet connection is down' message on my browser. i looked at my hub and it was all blue evrything looked fine but i am now getting 38ms to bbc multiplay evrywhere from the early hops!! 38 ping i never thought interleaving would be that bad. My hg612 is hacked from my last troubling interleaving times so i am able to get some stats. Im guessing it will be a matter of days before G.INP is applied on my line?? Does anything look funny in these stats ive no idea myself. Thanks for reading

It can take a few weeks for DLM to apply g.inp on a new line. That time might have restarted if the engineer performed a DLM reset (he should if he made repairs to the network). It's more than likely all will be well in a couple weeks time.

If I'm right a line which had broadband and then was ceased by the previous owner the new owner of the premises would need to place a new order to reactivate the line this would be classed as a New line, if from passed knowledge it can take upto 8 weeks for a line to be G.INP enabled  :-\

Interleaving on FTTC can add about 10ms onto your pings though the further north you go in the UK the ping ms will increase the best I can get these days is 18ms it used to be 32 - 42ms when Interleaved on FTTC.

The stats show a total of 24ms delay from the interleaving, presumably it's operating at the high level of interleaving on at least the downstream. Presumably the DLM was not happy about something, perhaps the fault that has now been fixed.

Thanks ever so much for the replies guys.

Ive literally just moved round the corner in salford and at my old property after g.inp was enabled on my line i had 11ms to bbc for almost 3 years. Now thats a ping to be proud of :P

However im now on a diff cab which is also a broadcomm one and it seems to be one of the oldest cabs in the village thats runs right the way through, turns off the main road and right down the row of terraces were at. passing about 4 new estates each with cabs at the start

Interleave depth:          685      131

The crazy high interleave depth was applied around 4pm after the engineers left at 13:30. My hub must have resynced about 20 times while they were here testing every junction possible. I can only hope this is why and the new depth was applied just after it was fixed.

Is there any reason G.INP will NOT be applied to my line? or is it 100% just a matter of time as i thought interleaving was a thing of the past. And does anything stand out to anyone in my stats that would indicate any other problems or possible any advice on what stats to look at. My snr margin graph is like constant ever so slight jitter untill 1am then completly flat until 7:15am. 1hr or slight jitter then flat till 13:00 and its been slight jitter ever scince

The interleave depth figure itself doesn't really tell you very much, the INP and delay values are more meaningful. I think INP=3 and delay=8 is the usual low setting.

Also, I thought the voltage on a phone line was supposed to be 50, so perhaps they were talking about something else.

But if you leave it alone to "do its own thing" all should eventually be resolved.

INP and delay has been reduced back to 22 instead of 38 ping to bbc. Fingers crossed for G.INP sooner rather than later

dslstats showing 34 days modem uptime and 31 days dsl uptime now with g.inp nowhere to be seen as of yet with interleaving still active. i have been keeping track a little of my errors and they seem quite low but around 4pm everyday the internet is completely unresponsive for 5 minutes or so but the modem stays in sync??. Also my connection speed hasn't moved i dont think since the 1st week of install. is it possible its banded? 35728      7010. is it worth doing 1 modem reboot as it hasn't been rebooted since my line fault was fixed. how is best to do it? leave it off for 5 mins or 20 mins? i have purchased a decent twisted pair 0.5m rj11 cable from tandy (yes they still exist:)) and need to a little re wiring but i am holding off so the modem can have some uptime. i read something about dlm doing things in 8 day cycles so in a couple of days i may turn the modem off do all the wiring etc

if people are interested or could provide some insight into my line mydslwebstats username is: markb

best regards. mark

Fairly certain you are not banded.  Just the impact of some significant interleaving.

I prefer to drop the connection session in the router GUI, before disconnecting and haven't overly worried about how long the router is down for.  I would have thought 5 mins was more than sufficient.

I must have watched the router reboot 30 times when the engineers were doing ther testing so i did have really heavy interleaving applied for about 7 days after and i have since gone down to the standard 8ms. yes i will 'disconnect' the internet from the router 1st.
