... and to start off with..I was syncing at 8mb down..1mb up...but my SNR was at 5.5/6... and I dropped a few times...

I had a brain wave... a while ago..a mate ran an extension up to my loft from the master socket... I removed the faceplate..and plugged it direct in to the socket behind the face plate... my stats are a little better now

Bandwidth (Up/Down) [kbps/kbps]: 1.249 / 18.000

Data Transferred (Sent/Received) [KB/KB]: 92,00 / 427,00

Output Power (Up/Down) [dBm]: 12,0 / 18,0

Line Attenuation (Up/Down) [dB]: 10,0 / 20,5

SN Margin (Up/Down) [dB]: 8,0 / 6,5

I know my SNR is low..but it's improved .5 and my download has increased by 10mb..and it's alot more stable now...

Only problem..I had to escalate a call to the London engineers as the Speedtouch 716 they provide is shit...and I can't set my firewall up on the DMZ..so all my servers are out of action at the mo

Gonna kick butt tomorrow and get it resolved asap...
But still..i'm happy with my line stats now
Just got to fit the filtered faceplate (when it arrives)

I'm off to download the entire internet now.
