Don't worry about the 0 margin. Your downstream margin should be 6 but DLM has raised this by capping your speed because of an excessive number of disconnections.

The modem says connected for 38 days 7 hours 58 minutes 56 seconds.

This is really because TCP/IP wasn't designed for geo-location, and its companies such as MaxMind whom have set themselves up as Geo-IP organisations, to help people like the BBC protect their regional content.

IP space is tradable, and the network works, its the Digital Rights Management that starts to go wrong as we are trying to create national borders on a medium that never had any.

Yeah, this has caused us some grief. Some of our customers want to know that their data is being held within Northern Europe and we've had problems proving this. It's a particular problem with Microsoft Azure services because their IP addresses seem to be 'geo-dynamic'.

They maintain a list somewhere (can't find it off the top of my head) but unfortunately at least one of our customers felt it didn't meet their data retention policy requirements.

Edit: Ah found the list. With obligatory Win10 advert at the top

I see what you mean about not wanting to do a reset

Well my speeds seem to have gone up 3-5Mps recently ...

My modem has been connected for 38 days 7 hours 58 minutes 56 seconds
and is showing Line rate (kbit/s) 66999 19999 Not sure if that has changed.

That is exactly what happened to me for a few days at the end of July, 66999/19999 (banded profile) but it went back to the norm of around 64/65000 after a few days, following an unintentional modem power-off. During this period, my attainable got to over 76000.

Interestingly, after a week or so, my connection was reset externally and im now on a different gateway for some reason.


Also, i drove past our exchange last night and it looked like that have installed rather large new concrete chambers in the ground.
