Could this be my poor setting up or just xtras ****ty service?

516302 2007-01-15 23:54:00 I have a router reported 6400, my tested is 1.95Mbit.
They sent a tech and they said nothing is wrong.

:D

For the disconnects could be the isp or/and the modem. If you are not using the supplied adsl cable use that and try. I take it the modem is disconnecting than the wireless/wired LAN card right?

I think its the lines or Telecom. I have a good router/modem, I have a good ISP (not Xtra). I have used the same cable supplied and ran it via a filter but left the phone socket empty, I plugged the adsl cable in the filter via the adsl outlet. Had this when just one phone or no phone was plugged to wall.

Yes it is the modem that disconnects.. I think its just the lines around here because ive tried using different modems/routers

516304 2007-01-16 00:04:00 Login to your modem management page and find the status page.
Then check this link forums.whirlpool.net.au
My router reads 6640kbps yet I only get 4.6mbit day or night.. anytime. Even when the rate drops to 5500~kbps (rarely), the speed is still 4.6mbps
Note that your downstream rate reported by your modem isnt the actual max speed u will download at. 15% of your reported rate is overhead. So subtract that for your theoretical speed.

Line Attenuation
Measure of how much the signal has degraded between the DSLAM and the modem. This is largely a function of the distance from the exchange. The lower the dB the better for this measurement.

20dB and below is outstanding
20dB-30dB is excellent
30dB-40dB is very good
40dB-50dB is good
50dB-60dB is poor and may experience connectivity issues
60dB or above is bad and will experience connectivity issues


This is mine

Line Attenuation
47 = Download 27 = Upload
