Hi.
I have using AA for the last few months without any issues. One of the great things of AA it gives information so you can obsess on other details.
I been swapping modems try to get the best sync rate. I just got a VMG8324-B10A that seems to be a preferred modem for the forum. My line is just on the limit to able to get the full 80Mbps. And I tried. a few Lantiq modems (Vigor, Netgear, BTHH5) and I wasn't able to get a better sync rate that I had from my old HG612. I saw the DLM putting down a few times the sync rate and I can see the change in the AA panel.
Now I been running the VMG8324-B10A for about 15 days and I was able to gain back the full sync speed.

However on my AA panel still shows 76.5MBps.
Tx rate (adjusted) 72120349 to 75151746 (rx 19999000) and it got stuck in there for at least 15 days or so.
So my question comes I see there is a difference between the physical sync rate and what the provider (AA for this case) observes.
Running a speed test will give a 74Mbps result. So it confirms that I get close what the AA Panel says, but is not the real sync speed.
So I am not sure where the difference is between the sync rate and the AA panel rate. Also, if I am syncing at 80Mbps, My speedtest should be close to 80Mbps and not around 74Mbps ish.
Thanks!
