Hi All.

I am thinking of upgrading my adsl line to 10mb. Do you think I will get close to 10mb with the following stats or am I wasting my time ? The Telkom Exchange is about 1km from my house (as the bird flies)

US RATE : 512
DS RATE : 1024
US MARGIN : 12
SD MARGIN : 25
Trained Modulation : ADSL_G.dmt
LOS Errors : 0
DS Line Attenuation : 32
US Line Attentuation : 18
Peak Cell Rate : 1207
CRC RX FAST : 0
CRC TX RATE : 0
CRC RX interleaved : 0
CRC RX Interleaved : 0
Path Mode : Fast Path


Thanks in advanced
Ryan
 
rather upgrade to a 4mbps, lots of people who have 10mbps lines do not sync at 10mbps. I friend of mine has a 10mbps and does not sync at 10mbps.
 
Don't know if your exchange supports 10mb

You can receive a stable 10mb easily

If u r on a separate ISP and line with telkom go for 4 mb on ISP then phone 10210 (telkom) and ask them to up your speeds to 10mb!
trust me it's worth it!

Sorry just to let u know if u do the above it's a cheat cheat way of getting 10mb much cheaper

Enter your Downstream attenuation (dB): 32.00
Attainable Rate (ADSL1) - kb/s: 7783
Attainable Rate (ADSL2+) - kb/s: 13828
Distance to the exchange (metres): 2317
Cable Loss (dB/km) - Default = 13.81

Linky?
 
10Mbps might be pushing it, but I suppose you should be able to at least get 6-8Mbps with it.
 
Meh. Can't edit it with my default 'droid app.
Thx though. Will try from pc later.

My aunt is on 47 downstream attenuation and sheus getting a stable 10mb!

There is no way that she can be on a stable 10Mbps ADSL connection with 47dB downstream line attenuation! Perhaps she has a modem that is reporting it in 0.1dB units, which would mean that she actually has 4.7dB downstream line attenuation.
 
My line stats.

Quality of your router also makes a difference. I'm using a TP-Link W8960N...
 
Thanks for that sand_man!

I see that your SNR margins aren't that great (upstream on being below 10dB), but at least you get 10Mbps down/1Mbps up with a fairly high downstream line attenuation of 32dB.
 
Hahahaha no they do online tv, Samsung so they have to have a stable line and they do wifi cisco cameras cause they got robbed :P
 
whats the dl speed of a 10mbps?
if u can get that

but rather go for the 4mbps
it cheaper and maby more stable

cuz no one gets 10mbps
6-8mbps..


paying full price for half of the speed,its a rip-off
