Line changes G.DMT to ADSL2+

[dj_jyno]

Hi guys

As mentioned in another thread, our exchange was recently upgraded to ADSL2+. I've noticed a change in the figures as follows:

Original

Statistics -- ADSL

Mode: G.DMT
Type: Fast
Line Coding: Trellis On
Status: No Defect
Link Power State: L0

Downstream Upstream
SNR Margin (dB): 30.3 12.0
Attenuation (dB): 20.0 10.5
Output Power (dBm): -3.9 12.6
Attainable Rate (Kbps): 12064 1216
Rate (Kbps): 384 128

Current

Statistics -- ADSL

Mode: ADSL2+
Line Coding: Trellis On
Status: No Defect
Link Power State: L0

Downstream Upstream
SNR Margin (dB): 26.0 12.0
Attenuation (dB): 22.0 12.0
Output Power (dBm): -3.4 -23.0
Attainable Rate (Kbps): 7372 1128
Rate (Kbps): 384 127

Are the current stats reason enough to complain, or should I just shut up and be grateful that the line is syncing again?

i would complain keeping quiet is reason why telkom sits and pretends nothings broken while you running around trying to find solutions to fix it

A quick update - as of now, there is still a fault at the exchange. I had to literally drag that information out of the call center agent yesterday, after being told that the problem might be on my ISP's side. Apparently I was just lucky that my line synced yesterday morning. Been out since about 12:00 yesterday afternoon.

They always blame "your ISP" if you are not with Telkom Internet...

they still blame telkom internet for my faults yet its the exchange so doesnt matter what isp

That is quite ironic, since the one chop transferred me to TelkomInternet after I told him that it's a line fault.

just do a manual g.dmt setting in your router?

both line specs are GOOD - adsl2+ is known to have lower values than g.dmt

imho you just wasting your time , that is if you don't have any other serious problem with stability ?

That is my main problem. The line syncs when it wants to, and apparently they are *still* busy with the fault. Thank you for the suggestion, though. Will force G.DMT and see whether that helps.
