I have noticed there is a big jump in attainable rate.
Before:
Downstream Upstream
Line Coding (Trellis) On On
SNR Margin (dB) 6.1 12.9
Attenuation (dB) 11.7 0.0
Output Power (dBm) 12.5 0.0
Attainable Rate (Kbps) 81523 27708
Rate (Kbps) 80000 20000
Now:
Downstream Upstream
Line Coding (Trellis) On On
SNR Margin (dB) 15.4 21.2
Attenuation (dB) 10.3 0.0
Output Power (dBm) 12.5 0.0
Attainable Rate (Kbps) 119523 37916
Rate (Kbps) 80000 20000

A crosstalker switched off?
|
|
|
|
Doubt a single crosstalker would see a 40meg fluctuation!

Not impossible though .... I have one close to me and the difference is 16-18 Mbps.

That's less than half the rate we're on about. Yeah it could be a couple of crosstalkers but unlikely they'd be off at the same time.

Latest after resync:

Dropped a fair bit although it is night time so more Radio interference.

Resync from 87 to this
Maximum data rate:

Something odd happening with your attenuation, 11.7 to 10.3 to 11.7 ...

Either Max's house moved a little closer, then back again .....
or there was some brief oddness with the DSLAM.
(got me money on the second option)

Hi
Attenuation reported by modems/routers isn't the same attenuation BT use, the modem uses an average over a range of received frequencies so can vary in the reporting.
The difference could be vectoring if you have that now (some BDUK funded cabs get it), or one or more cross-talkers have gone, don't forget we are in peak holiday season now, so that isn't as unlikely as it sounds where people go away and turn everything off. You'll know in a couple of weeks!
There could be a fault at the cab where a line card has gone and dozens of people have dropped their connection, reducing cross-talk considerably.
Has the power tx/rtx power levels changed? The modems might have decided to up the power levels for some reason, making your signal louder against the noise so you get a higher signal to noise ratio.
Regards
Phil

Maybe it a bug with router or DSLAM?
|
|
|
check vectoring status
How to check that on my billion 8800NL stats?
|
|
|
I'm thinking a noise issue nearby, maybe some local construction or major fault in the area....
Keep monitoring, unless it has a large impact on connection I wouldn't worry to much.
Best Regards,
Matt.

Seems another user on Kitz had a jump in their max attianable and it looks as though vectoring has been enabled on their cabinet.
|
|
|
yep and someone has beat me here to the command so lets see what max reports.
ECI people gonna go mental if hauwei now also got vectoring.
|
|
|
Some selected BDUK Huawei cabs have vectoring enabled to meet some "superfast" targets to further away premises. It's likely related, or, Openreach are doing some wider, unheard of testing.

I too have had a jump in sync speed in the past week or so.
A couple of weeks ago I went on holiday for a week and turned off the router - I had several hundred hours of solid sync at 63Mbps.
Since returning just over a week ago and turning on the modem I've had about 4 retrains initiated by the remote end - presumably DLM. The first slightly improved sync speed but also enabled G.INP on my upstream (previously only downstream), and the others just increased sync speed and I'm now up to 73Mbps
Vectoring state is 5 (unconfigured) still - so it's not that.
I'm guessing as mentioned it's down to a few people on holiday and reduced crosstalk - will see what happens in a few weeks or the end of the school holiday - but guessing I'l loose the 10Mbps again.
Last year I was still in a contract for 40Mbps having just moved so didn't see any change of course, but prior to that at the last house (longer line about 37Mbps) I never noticed any seasonal change!

Bah humbug that is nice. I have asked Openreach on twitter if it is being rolled out but they are going to get back to me.
|
|
|
|
It's not. It's only on some BDUK funded Huawei cabinets. They use part of the funding on the vectoring equipment to bring properties above the (usually) 24mb target. It's only viable in certain areas, usually where a number of properties are a good distance from the cabinet.
It's not the 1st time we've seen vectoring on a cabinet and it won't be the last. A few years ago there was lots of talk about OpenReach rolling out vectoring on a large scale. That ship has sailed now though.
It's also not something that can practically be rolled out to ECI cabinets either. It would just make the difference between the 2 cabinet vendors even greater.

Thanks, John, I am on a Digital Durham Cabinet which is Huawei but I am getting 71 down after a cable replacement. Wonder if I will see it?
|
|
|
|
Not if most are getting your speeds. If crosstalk drops a large number of users below Digital Durhams target then vectoring may be considered. Sometimes it's installed when the cabinet is 1st provisioned, and sometimes quite a bit later. There's no real info on when it is/isn't deployed. We've just noticed the pattern that it's only ever BDUK funded projects that have vectoring, and statements from individual organisations (like Digital Durham) explaining why they've deployed vectoring (to meet properties passed targets).
|
|
|
I can only see 1 TBB speed test on my estate connected to Sky getting 25 down but only done 1 test. I am pretty sure there are others connected to the cabinet but just maybe not testing on TBB.

I did ask plusnet for the line test GEA test to see if Vectoring is enabled or not? Plusnet cannot tell me if it was on or not. They not aware of any vectoring trial test from openreach?
But they notice my line was all the over the place but there is no sign of DLM trigger which it rather odd.

Saw openreach engineer is working on my green cabinet and he told me he just putting a new card in and testing. I asked him about vectoring and g.fast. He say my cabinet is on trial of vectoring ongoing process but DLM will not affect in this trial stage. As for g.fast there is no timeframe slot for the time being.

I have never seen 2 before, usually its set to 5, but 2 indicates from the description its not quite active either.
Thanks for running the command.

It's appear openreach trialing vectoring in most places but there is nothing on ispreview or thinkbroadband about this. Nothing on BT press release news.
All I can see so far that BT trialing:
new g.fast pod installing
vectoring test
SNR 3dB trial
g.INP on ECI cabinet trial

I just noticed that very odd on downstream Errored Second was still zero but upstream Errored Second was very badly soaring to 778 so far after 6th resync. I think upstream is still on fast path while downstream still on interleaved (8)
I will keep monitoring it and updated if any change.
