Speed not high enough

[AdrienBrault]

Hi,

I have "High Speed Internet Enhanced (7.1 to 15 Mbps)" working since this morning.

I currently only get ~550KB/s (4.4Mbps ?). The thing is that on the " http://192.168.1.1/modemstatus_wanstatus.html " page, I can see "Downstream Speed:17647 Kbps", so I should be getting way more speed right ?

Broadband Mode Setting:	ADSL2+
Broadband Negotiated Mode:	ADSL2+
Connection Status:	CONNECTED
Downstream Speed:	17647 Kbps
Upstream Speed:	1083 Kbps

SNR Downstream :	6 dB
SNR Upstream :	9 dB
Attenuation Downstream :	22 dB
Attenuation Upstream :	10 dB
Power Downstream	21.5 dBm
Power Upstream	12.3 dBm

Thanks

1am and I have 1800KB/s ... I see what's going on there. So is it possible to have that speed during the day ? (3x difference is kinda hard!)

Just to verify, those modem Statistics were obtained during a period where you were seeing a slowdown, correct? It seems like you're having congestion since those stats are otherwise okay, but not the best.

To be sure, do you have any statistics that indicate, for example, CRC, FEC, HEC, or otherwise state "Errors" next to these terms? I'd like to see if your error counts are increasing a ton during the evening hours as well. Errors can cause the DSL to slow down, but not drop or appear to lose data (there's a reliability factor to DSL).

If it is truly congestion, I can get someone to fix this one up for you. Just need to get the above info sorted out, first.

Well, so far, errors are going up at night which is to be expected in cases like these, but you seem to be stable enough and you're not even hitting that many uncorrectable errors on the connection. Seems like an issue with congestion at this point.

I'll send you some contact info to get this sorted out. Please let me know how things go.
