That's  good to hear, thanks for updating us.

Are you going to upgrade to 80/20?

The interleaving will be removed soon, hopefully in a few days but possibly longer.

Should switch from Interleaving to ReTx in 2 days.

Glad to hear everything went well.  :congrats: :yay: :clap: :thumbs:

Yes, absolutely. Plusnet's tools currently won't let me order the 80/20 package which they believe is because the cabinet isn't officially open for orders. They're going to keep an eye on things and hopefully in the next week or two when databases are updated I can be bumped up.

There is just one thing that puzzles me . . .

In reply #3 you show two images of the new AIO cabinet.
In reply #11 you mention walking to the new cabinet, as your telephone and broadband services had been disrupted, and showed another image. This latter image does not match either of the two images in reply #3.

It does, it's just end on, you can see the same wooden fence in both and also see the same white sign post in both.

Correct. I agree that the first two pics show the verge looking quite maintained versus the one in post 11... but I can assure you it's definitely the same cab. In fact the OR engineer is down in the trench/pit which you can see the covers for in the second pic (lower right corner).

Maybe this'll help (although I'm sure we've all seen enough green cabinet pics):

Ah, ha. Thank you. The curious kitteh now understands the physical layout.  :)

How does it show max sync at 82?

I though they were all capped at 80 or 40, package dependant?

The modem shows what it considers to be the maximum attainable speed given no imposed limits, that is the speed he stated. It should be noted that if interleaving is applied then this figure will be incorrect and higher than it should be, it probably also doesn't take into account lower SNR targets, so maximum attainable speed would be higher if the SNR target was lowered.

Ah ok, so it is capped at 80 before transmission?

The max attainable rate will take into account whatever value the target SNRM is.

All 80/20 lines are capped at 80Mb, even though the max attainable may be 99Mb.
If there wasn't an 80Mb cap then that 99Mb would be roughly where the line would sync.

The max attainable shows what they line would sync at if there was no cap at all, wether it was a 40Mb/55Mb/80Mb cap.

The way Interleaving/INP is applied on FTTC makes the max attainable over estimate.

I actually have an interesting comparison having been on Digital Region.

I used to get a max attainable of 130Mbit and actual sync of 99.9Mbit, but once I switched to BT its never been that high.  I suspect something to do with the band plans.

Its quite depressing seeing my line syncing at 76Mbit these days though, my new second line is only hitting 63Mbit. :(

Don't get me wrong, I appreciate that other people have it WAY worse, but its never good to see things going backwards.

You folks were spot on... after ~36hrs active, at around 1am Sunday the modem resync'd, enabling G.INP and lowering the interleave depth from 1283 to 16 (resulting in my latency halving).

Reported max rates are now 81424 down / 29128 up.

Have ordered Plusnet Fibre Extra (80/20) which should go live overnight, so fingers crossed.  :fingers:

Continuing the story... my 80/20 service went live as expected. Initially at:

Code: [Select]
Downstream Upstream
Line attenuation (dB):  9.0 0.0
Signal attenuation (dB): Not available on VDSL2
Connection speed (kbps): 71119 19999
SNR margin (dB):        6.2 15.4
Power (dBm):            13.0 -7.2
Interleave depth:        1391 1
INP:                    3.00 0
G.INP:                  Not enabled Not enabled
Vectoring status:        5 (VECT_UNCONFIGURED)

RSCorr/RS (%):          0.0008 0.0350
RSUnCorr/RS (%):        0.0000 0.0000
ES/hour:                0 1.28

Then after 48hrs G.INP kicked in and interleaving dropped:

Code: [Select]
Downstream Upstream
Line attenuation (dB):  9.1 0.0
Signal attenuation (dB): Not available on VDSL2
Connection speed (kbps): 79999 19999
SNR margin (dB):        6.6 15.7
Power (dBm):            13.1 -7.2
Interleave depth:        8 1
INP:                    52.00 0
G.INP:                  Enabled Not enabled
Vectoring status:        5 (VECT_UNCONFIGURED)

RSCorr/RS (%):          0.0001 0.0375
RSUnCorr/RS (%):        0.0000 0.0000
ES/hour:                0 2.17

It's remained sync'd like that for 12 days but I've noticed that my BRAS profile is pretty poor, given my 79999 sync:
Code: [Select]
The current Downstream BRAS rate is: 70.61 Mbps
The current Upstream BRAS rate is: 20 Mbps
... by my maths, that's 88.26%

This is all with a stable downstream SnR of 6.5 dB - but with the dreaded ReTx High.

I've now capped the line at 70000 20000 to try to get ReTx low to kick in. I'm a bit fuzzy on why I wouldn't get ReTx set to low anyway, given the >6dB SNR margin and relatively low error rates. Is someone able to explain that please?

Now it's syncing at 70000 20000 the SNRM is nice and high. I'll post the G.INP stats tomorrow as I know j0hn has been tracking them. Fingers crossed that the 70000 cap is low enough - I may not have been heavy-handed enough, so let's see.
