I am with BT Total Broadband Option 3 , I have been with BT for a good few years now ...
My point is ... For well over a year I had been connecting to my BT account using a Netgear DG834Gv3 wireless router.
In January this year I re-signed with BT onto a new 12 month contract because they had offered me thier top package for £19:99 a month with the new style home hub & phone free of charge.
Since using the new hub my sync has dropped slightly from 8128kbps with an IP Profile of 7150 to 8096kbps resulting in an IP Profile of 7000 ( I know I shouldnt complain as ive read there are not many people that sync this fast and have much slower connections)....
I was reading the stats on the hub and found that interleaving is turned on , Ive read that this is to stabilise the line ? ( im no expert on this matter btw) but I dont understand why its turned on as I can sync the full speed using the netgear router , the sync drops through using the home hub.
I dont want to com across as greedy , far from it ... is there anything I can do to get interleaving turned off ?
I want to continue using the home hub because of the broadband talk package that I get using the hub phone.
here are my line stats from the router....
DSL Connection

what do the errors mean and are they anything to worry about ? are they causing interleaving ?
I look forward to any replies and information of what I can/could do to try and get the hub to sync at the full speed.
As ive said , the netgear does but I cant use the hub phone with it .
Thanks in advance for any comments
Cheers
