He reports it to Paradise, they check and see if the problem is with themselves, if not they log the fault with Telecom. Thats how it works with all other ISPs. |

Thats how it works with all other ISPs. Quite correct pctek, surprised a computer tech was not aware of that. If the customer calls telecom with a broadband fault they will always get told to contact their ISP. |

It does if you have one of the ADSL2+ modems with the dud chipset. I had a D-Link model (can't remember which one) and my line speed was 7616kb/s when the DSLAM was ADSL1. (7616kb/s is the max. for ADSL1) On changing to ADSL2+, the speed dropped to 7547kb/s, a new modem has increased that to over 11Mb/s Apparently the chipset was a "pre-standard" one - I only found out later that changing to non-interleaved would have fixed it. |

| 700454 | 2008-08-28 08:43:00 | Actually, if anyone has ANY brand of ADSL2+ modem that shows a line speed of 7547kb/s, you should be suspicious of the above fault. Test your line with an ADSL1 modem and if it shows 7616kb/s, then either ask for your money back for the 2+ modem or get interleaving turned OFF. |
