Here follows a snippet of the statistics from my CPE --
> xdslctl info --state
xdslctl: ADSL driver and PHY status
Status: Showtime
Last Retrain Reason: 0
Last initialization procedure status: 0
Max: Upstream rate = 15843 Kbps, Downstream rate = 44601 Kbps
Bearer: 0, Upstream rate = 9997 Kbps, Downstream rate = 40000 Kbps
Bearer: 1, Upstream rate = 0 Kbps, Downstream rate = 0 Kbps
The "
Bearer: 0" line shows the current synchronisation speed, xTU-C <-> xTU-R, of the channel over which the end-user's data is carried.
The "
Bearer: 1" line shows the current speed of the channel used by the xTU-C and the xTU-R to exchange information.
I seem to recall
ejs mentioning that the latter channel is present for all xDSL modems but is not necessarily reported by all such devices. (Hopefully I have remembered that correctly . . . otherwise I expect to be corrected.
)
