My Home Hub 5A with OpenWRT on it couldn't hold a stable sync with G.INP but I believe the "official" firmware may do.  Can't really see how they could roll it out if they hadn't fixed their own firmware.

Still nothing on BT. They seem completely uninterested in the trial, so I don't expect to get G.INP unless/until it's rolled out to all ECI cabs.

Your BT Home Hub 5A was supplied by BT Retail. Openreach are not BT Retail. BT Retail are not Openreach. The firmware for the BT Home Hub 5A was created for, and distributed by, BT Retail.

True, but as they discontinued the previous trial due to hardware problems and AFAIK HH5A was a big part of that, what makes that any different today?

. . . what makes that any different today?

The complete severage of the inter-company links has now taken place.  :)

What makes you think it was the HH5A?

I don't think anyone has the slightest clue what modems resulted in the last trial being stopped.

It wasn't necessarily the modems that saw issues during the very 1st rollout.
Those modems saw increased latency and a drop in sync.

The last trial was stopped due to a bitswapping issues but that's the only details OpenReach gave.

My Home Hub 5A with OpenWRT on it couldn't hold a stable sync with G.INP but I believe the "official" firmware may do.  Can't really see how they could roll it out if they hadn't fixed their own firmware.

That's assuming those in bold are 1 and the same entity.

Unless by the 2nd "they" you were referring to OpenReach and their ECI modem.  ::)

Has anyone seen any posts anywhere ECI GINP has been blamed for a problem with their line? 

I've not seen anything negative I am just hoping that a more wider rollout is going soon or even it being rolled out to everyone.

Once GINP is rolled out I can then start with hoping for 3db.  I can dream :)


It's not worked out too well for my line :'(

The problem isn't so much G.INP but rather G.INP is totally ineffective with certain types of REIN and SHINE.   My line suffers from a daily burst of SHINE each day that lasts for a couple of seconds and then is ok for the rest of the day.   No amount of G.INP or Interleaving is going to be able to correct that burst of noise, but problem being the DLM sees it and thinks it should try correct it.    Doesnt help that ECI cabs are not following the #error seconds rule and is penalising lines with much lower amounts of err secs.

This is a summary of how its worked out on my line.   I'm currently banded at 60Mpbs with High Re-TX   :( 

Code: [Select]
16/03/2020 No G.INP Connection speed (kbps): 66037 20000
17/03/2020 G.INP applied Connection speed (kbps): 68019 20000
29/03/2020 Resync modem Connection speed (kbps): 68960 20000
11/04/2020 DLM > Retx High Connection speed (kbps): 67984 20000
13/04/2020 DLM > Capped 67Mbps Connection speed (kbps): 66999 20000
23/04/2020 DLM > Capped 60Mbps Connection speed (kbps): 60000 20000


As you can imagine with re-tx high, then my actual throughput speed is <55Mbps :'(

Which was the last trial? The one in 2016 had an issue with Lantiq modems locking up for which updated modem firmware was available.

I know my line now has G.INP applied but not sure what the new numbers mean; eg is it now on Fastpath? How does it look to the educated eye?

Congratulations and welcome to G.INP!
You should be on Fastpath as I believe G.INP lines always are.
Hopefully in a few days your journey to 3dB on the downstream side will begin.

3db? Even on an ECI cab?

Oh, hang on, the clue is in the thread title, isn't it....  :)

Yup, I've been on G.INP on my ECI cabinet for 47+ days now with no interruptions at all and no 3db either. I suspect this is just the G.INP test at present and they will want a lot more testing before changing anything else. I hope they dont want to mess anything up just as much as we dont want it either.

Is AAISP actively adding users to the trial or is this just a random lucky user added by Openreach?

Positive news that users are still being added I wish the trial rollout was quicker though.  I feel a decision for a full rollout may never happen and I'll have FTTP before Ginp on ECI!

I'm with Zen. They told me it's down to OR and they couldn't request me to  be added even though I badgered them to sign up to the trial which they are now on...🙄🙄🙄
