Hi Guys,
Thought you might like to hear a weird one.
I am looking at a sites Broadband that we support which has suffered dropouts and dramatic changes in the SNR.
The line has been tested many times by Bt as ok. I requested an Engineer attend site and spoke to him about this problem, after the visit the Engineer completed a left n shift at the exhange. Guess what the fault remins but its gone a bit differant.
so whats happening??
Well a while ago i ran Router stats on this connection using a Draytek Vigor router on site, the SNR was all over the place. Raised with BT "no fauts found" :s
We went tp site and replaced the filter and confirmed all internel cabling was ok. The fault remained.
Went back to site once more and replaced the Router with a Zyxel 660. The fault remained.
BT as i said before attended and now the connection is showing -1db on the SNRM
? Re-booted the router and again -1db??
The router stats that i have linked to this page is on the draytek before any action was taken.
Current stats taken from the Zyxel are:
3968 kbps / 448 kbps
noise margin upstream: 24 db
output power downstream: 19 db
attenuation upstream: 29 db

LAN Information:
IP Address: 192.168.1.1
IP Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0
The connection has been online for over 10 hours and has dropped very early this morning. I always thought that DSLMax could never have an SNR above 16db, am i wrong?
Your thoughts please
Thanks, Chris
