| 1164843 | 2010-12-26 07:03:00 | could the filter at fault relating to the bad calls | GameJunkie (72) | ||
| 1164844 | 2010-12-26 07:12:00 | Theres a thought I will see if I can swap the filters with someone else and see if the problem is cured before getting the Chorus guys out. | coldfront (15814) | ||
| 1164845 | 2010-12-27 02:07:00 | I've never given much thought to speed, as it has always seemed OK, so I ran the same Speedtest check. Download was 5.43Mb/s but upload was only .73Mb/s. A differential of 7.75 x seems extreme, so what could be choking my uploads? Xtra full speed up/down account 10GB/month cap which I never even dent. Cheers Billy *<8-{)= |

Cheers Billy *<8-{)= If you have ADSL2 then your upload speed is OK, it's your download that is somewhat low, but maybe you are a bit far from your nearest cabinet. www.telecom.co.nz Your modem will tell you what the download line attenuation is, from that by dividing by 13 will give an estimate of distance. www.tpg.com.au |

Cheers Billy *<8-{)= Whenever i run speedtest, download is always around 4-5Mbs and upload is roughly .75Mbs we live in an adsl2+ area and a cabinet is at the bottom of our street, about 50m away. we're on 40Gb a month aswell is there something that can be done(other than change the router/modem)? im happy anyway but hey anything to improve speed can only be good |

That is a normal upstream rate for an ADSL connection (and comparable to mine) If you want anything faster, you need Annex M (Up to 3Mbit Upstream) but I think you'd have to move to Australia first. |
