ECI vs Huawei
« on: March 02, 2019, 10:05:19 AM »

These aren't strictly speaking comparable lines but the 2nd line which is now Huawei used to perform worse than the first line.

Sufficed to say I'm attempting to get my primary line onto the Huawei.

Some of the improvement will be down to the ~50m reduction in line length due to how the cabinets are set up.

Interesting results.

Different modems or routers?

Has anyone seen my signature, it seems to have disappeared, along with Openreach turning on G.INP on ECI cabinets ever again.

Change the first line to ADSL, then back to VDSL, you should hopefully be on the Huawei then.

Nice difference between the two.

Good improvement but if the Huwaii is a brand new cabinet it does make me wonder that when more users are on the cabinet and crosstalk is activated how much of a real difference there will be?  Considering Ginp and 3db I would have expected a bigger difference perhaps they haven't kicked into action yet?  Would be interesting to see if fastpath can be achieved and what the max attainable speeds are between the cabinets.

There will be less crosstalk on the tie pairs (a relatively short distance) with low take up on the new cabinet, but the rest of the line will be no different.

Both on HG612

ADSL activates on the 6th with a monthly contract so i can switch.

Looking at the QLN the higher frequencies seem to show this.

Let us know what the outcome is when you switch back to VDSL  :fingers:

My other line has managed to end up on BDCM

Am I correct in thinking this line will reach around 74 when g.inp+ 3dB kicks in.

I'd have estimated around that figure.

Between 72Mb - 75Mb.

ADSL activates on the 6th with a monthly contract so i can switch.

I'm considering trying to get moved from ECI to Huawei (Installed to increase capacity). Which ISP did you use for ADSL and were there any exit fee's even though it was a monthly contract? Cheers

If you have a contract with your ISP you'll have to pay that.

Switching from the dsl didn't cost me anything and I did that with the no contract option with directsavetelecom.

If your dsl speeds aren't terrible then nowtv broadband would work too they also have a no contract option.
