iiNet ADLS2+ via BoB 4.66Mb/s when using ADLS1 settings G.992.1 (G.DMT) 3.58 Mb/s when using ADSL2+ settings G.992.5 (ADSL2+) Onslow Rd Shenton Park (about 3.5-4km from exchange)
And yes, isn't it a bit surprising that ADLS1 settings can deliver this kind of speed. Before I changed the settings (trying to resolve intermittent dropout issues), I had thought ADSL1 maxed out at 1.5. Those were the speeds I got today. Although in the past it has tended to average 4-4.2MB/s for ADSL2+, although it can vary. The ADSL1 seems very consistent at 4.6. Faster, more stable, so I prefer ADSL1. This isn't unusual it seems. http://117.53.171.171/forum-replies-archive.cfm/817888.html Glenn Nicholas OM4 :: On 18 June 2010 16:43, Jane Griffiths <jjgr...@mac.com> wrote: > > Hi Alastair > > I'm sure it's the approx 3km of old copper wires connecting us to the > exchange that let's us down!
