As pointed out previously it can in some cases take a number of weeks for G.INP to be applied (11 weeks for me).

I was the exact same as yourself being the 1st on a brand new cabinet. I thought perhaps something wasn't configured correctly and G.INP wouldn't be applied.

I would have hoped the DLM reset would have speeded up the process but looks like DLM is determined to make you wait.

Unfortunately the DLM is completely automated and there's zero the ISP can do.

The DSLAM doesn't need a firmware upgrade to do G.INP.
It just needs DLM to load that particular line profile.

If you send the command xdslcmd info --vendor with the HG612 it will return the DSLAM chipset/firmware in use.

I know, this is why I am trying to pursue Openreach, anyway here is the vendor output:

My advice would be to wait.
You've already had a DLM reset which would be about all OpenReach could do.
Another DLM reset simply restarts the clock on the wait for DLM to apply G.INP.

Your DSLAM firmware is the standard firmware/line card version in use.

There is what I understand different/newer version on some DSLAMS -   BDCM:0xb12d/v0xb12d - but that doesn't affect G.INP functionality

As j0hn says, I would just wait and leave the line alone.

Thank you both. Yes, I’ve actually realised that fastpath is active (having read how to tell on other posts) and since Interleaving dropped ping times have dropped from 21 to 8ms, so happy to just leave the line at the moment - solid for 2 weeks now. Just worried if it drops for any other reason than DLM the speed will reduce to below attainable.

!!G.INP ENABLED!! - Resync at 0139 on 1 July after an uptime of 32 days, thank you to everyone who said I need to be patient, didn't take as long as I thought, and I have gained 3MB on the line, from 60 to 63.  I suppose the last thing I need do to now is tweak down to a 3db target SNR as discussed a lot on here!

You don't need to do anything, DLM will reduce the SNRM down to 3dB if the line is deemed stable and has low error counts.

Indeed, just leave it to do its thing - you should find it'll step down in 1dB steps if the line is stable enough.

Hello All. Long time no speak. Since G.INP was applied on 1 July, the line was solid as a rock. In the last 3 days there has been a resync between 0200 and 0400am - this has had a positive effect on downstream as I have added another 2MB to my sync speed. Interestingly after the second resync I noticed that interleaving had been applied to the upstream too, but this only lasted 24 hours before being removed again. There was no resync this morning so I imagine DLM is now happy! Fancy taking a look and giving me a rough idea what DLM has been experimenting with?

1 July


Morning 1


Morning 2


Morning 3

The target SNR for a new line is around 6.3

Once g.inp is active, if the downstream sync speed is not reaching the maximum you have paid for, DLM will start lowering the downstream SNR in 1dB increments over several days to 3.x assuming your line remains stable - to boost your sync speed.

In your screenshots, it’s moved from 6.3 on 1 July to 5.2 on morning one

Thank you. I hope it keeps dropping the target SNR then because the line isn’t unstable. I was more curious as to why it whacked upstream interleaving on for one day and then reverted the change ;)

That's G.INP on the upstream.

It's off by default and only applied if certain error thresholds are met.
When it isn't needed any more it is removed.

I've had upstream G.INP come and go a few times, usually after lots of upstream ES.
