1147712 2010-10-28 19:22:00 Ah ok then. Ive got the same modem (the Dlink), but since I'm not on a ADSL2+ plan, there's probably no point getting another one, to see if I'll get ADSL2+ speeds. Because, I wont. Might as well stick with this and the 10/100/1000 switch. Speedy Gonzales (78)
1147713 2010-10-28 20:40:00 True, however you'll potentially get better reliability and a better sync speed due to different things like the chipset, and the amount of power it puts out onto the line.

What plan are you on? Does your exchange support ADSL2+ currently?

1147714 2010-10-28 20:48:00 I'm on river, you have to be on fusion I think (which I dont need. I dont pay for the phoneline). I dont think flood supports ADSL2 either. Wouldnt have a clue if the exchange suports ADSL2 or not. Even if it did, I wouldnt get ADSL2+ (because of the plan I'm on). I could go with someone like Telecom, but since its a fixed price, if you dont use all of whatever plan, you'll still have to pay the full price. And again, since I dont pay for the phoneline, telecom would have to ring the flatmate. So, I could use it. And since tolls aren't made through telecom, I would have to pay $10 extra as well Speedy Gonzales (78)
1147715 2010-10-29 06:35:00 The DSL-G604T (and also DSL-502T) only supports ADSL2+ on full speed (24Mbit) if it's a "Generation II" version.

It will be obvious if yours is such or not, as it is clearly written on the front under the model number.

1147716 2010-10-29 12:48:00 This is a Gen II. But still wont go at ADSL2+ since its not a ADSL2 plan Speedy Gonzales (78)
1147717 2010-10-31 07:34:00 Yeah my G604T Was not Generation II
Sync speeds were obvious as soon as I connected the borrowed one.

My new modem syncs at about 14000 kpbs but speedtest.net shows 8.0mbps and download at around 930-980 kb/s . Anyone know how I can get the full amount from my line?

1147718 2010-10-31 08:33:00 My cabinet has been upgraded to ADSL2+ but the phone lines around my area are still overhead & the wiring in my house isn't the best so I only get 3.6 down/0.6 up Greven (91)
