HH5A - New Firmware Trial (Hopefully resolves G.INP issues)

Just got an email from BT Trial team about a new firmware being deployed this evening to my HH5A.

Email below:

Hopefully it resolves the G.INP issues.

http://i59.tinypic.com/5b9vg5.jpg

I'll report back tomorrow

Let's hope so.

I'm amused by the instruction at the bottom right as to how to reboot the Hub.

That made me lol too

Edit: How bad is that, five words and I did a typo

Out of interest, how do you sign up to this beta test?

Trial has been running several days before this post and is now complete, i was on it and have seen a huge improvement on my hub5a, so much so im now going to ditch my white modems into the cupboard until the next problem comes our way (prob vectoring). The mods have informed us that openreach are now ready to roll it out and it will take several weeks to complete.

I also believe its not hub firmware but more "background" or even DLM changes as my firmware has not been changed.

The BT trials teams recruits people of ALL abilities including those who need instructions for every small task or change. They are not just checking te hardware and software functionality but the documentation too.

I'm unsure if you are serious, or taking the mickey out of the checking of the documentation . And by extension all their checking.

I'm serious. The image shown was also truncated, there is probably another line or two afterwards.

We seem to be talking about two different things in this thread.

You're talking about the Openreach trial to find a solution for the additional latency experienced with G.INP from a Huawei cabinet when the customer's equipment isn't capable of bidirectional G.INP. I understood the original post to be about a new firmware for the Home Hub 5A which improves its G.INP compatibility, presumably by deploying a later DSL blob from the chipset manufacturer.


Assuming these are two separate trials, they appear to be complimentary efforts. It is in customer's interests to have devices capable of taking advantage of G.INP to the greatest extent possible, together with mitigation of the substantial latency increase experienced in the initial G.INP deployment if their device is not capable of bidirectional G.INP.

I'll report back tomorrow

Please, as a side issue, could you clarify what should be at the bottom right of the linked pic. The "How to reboot" instructions look most peculiar.

I agree with the above. I have been involved in the trial and my firmware hasn't updated but my speeds are back up to what they used to be.

UPDATE

Spoke too soon, I just rebooted my HH5 and the firmware is now showing 4.7.5.1.83.8.204.1.11 (Type A)

Good to know that speed is back to what it was. What about latency?

"Thank you for your continued patience. As you know Openreach recently carried out a trial to address the reports on this thread with regards to G.INP. Openreach are very happy with the results of the trail and after some consultation they have now decided to roll this fix out across the network.

The repair is due to roll out for all relevant customers within the next few weeks, but unfortunately we are not able to put anyone to the head of the queue

I would like to thank everyone that has contributed on this thread and for the patience you have shown."

my homehub 5 re synced today half 4 and by remote added a value of 4

What's that anything to do with this g.inp and firmware

That sounds like the regular remote reboots, we get the exact same thing on our HH4 for our ADSLx connection.

I'm on infinity with home hub5 and got remote re sync added value of 4

Well we get reset every two weeks remotely.

We also have loads of the following:

08:56:50, 22 May. (1038058.990000) CWMP: session completed successfully
08:56:50, 22 May. (1038058.790000) CWMP: HTTP authentication success from https://pbthdm.bt.mo

08:56:46, 22 May. (1038054.370000) CWMP: Initializing transaction for event code 4 VALUE CHANGE

And every two weeks we get something like this which forces our router to reboot:

08:38:29, 10 May. ( 172.900000) CWMP: session completed successfully
08:38:29, 10 May. ( 172.680000) CWMP: HTTP authentication success from https://pbthdm.bt.mo

08:37:55, 10 May. ( 138.170000) CWMP: session closed due to error: WGET TLS error

And just before that we get this:

07:37:26, 10 May. ( 129.080000) CWMP: Session start now. Event code(s): '1 BOOT,4 VALUE CHANGE'

07:36:11, 10 May. ( 54.160000) CWMP: Initializing transaction for event code 1 BOOT

I am assuming that HH5x have different logs than the HH4x

So tempted to replace our HH4 (Type A) for our FRITZ!BOX 3390.

The latency seems ok now. A gaming server I regularly play on with a ping of 30 shot up to over 40, it is now back to 30ms

indeed the original post was about the eci stuff but im sure theres been several posts that say that both the eci's and the hub5a have the same chipset and that theres quite a few people with just a hub5a and no modem on huawei cabs so surely by fixing one theve gone a long way to fixing the other.

as for latency as above mine has gone back to hovering around 20ms which is where it was before G.INP was enabled.

Firmware updated this morning.... still not gettnig full sync and got high latency. Does it usually go away right away when a G.INP capable device is connected?

you have similar stats and sync as me , i hope i get the update soon

will everyone get this update or did you have to contact them ?

As far as I know if you are on the trial you will get the update automatically. If the trial is succesful then everyone will get it.
If not succesful it's back to the dfrawing board

ok thanks i never got on the trial first i heard of it was here but i was on the original hh5 trial so thats a bit weird
did u contact bt about your lower sync etc ?

No, they contacted me to tell me I had been selected fot the trial.

ok thanks

I applied to trial the firmware for the HH5A away back at the end of last year, this is the second firmware, last time the update really improved the WIFI.

http://www.speedtest.net/result/4382808018.png

Speeds aren't bad on wifi even with the G.INP issue, I topped bout 74meg before... upload higher than i used to, latency has risen bout 8-10ms though

never really had a problem with wifi since i split the 2.4 and 5 GHZ
last trial i had email about was the mobile trial , i might email them see if they can send it to my HH

Previous to the update they done for everyone in Jan, my wifi was flakey to say the least.... Ive always split the 2 bands but the last firmware made it alot quicker and more reliable

Can you tell us all what if any changes are visible to the web interface and does it improve anything.

Seems to have been sorred:

3. Firmware version: Software version 4.7.5.1.83.8.204.1.11 (Type A) Last updated 23/05/15
4. Board version: BT Hub 5A
5. DSL uptime: 6 days, 12:36:58
6. Data rate: 19999 / 79906
7. Maximum data rate:

Pings back down again too

Are you on a Huawei cabinet?

Just checked neighbours HH5A and still running old firmware... his connection seems to be getting worse everytime I look at it....

He's lost 5+mbps on his upstream, he's now down to 11000kbps meanwhile I can achieve 25000+ upstream and both our lines are in the same bundle back to cabs..

In reference to From HH5a:

6. Data rate:11652 / 59916
7. Maximum data rate:13988 / 59615
8. Noise margin:5.8 / 6.4
9. Line attenuation:22.8 / 17.4
10. Signal attenuation:22.8 / 17.3

In reply to a post by mlmclaren:

Really?

Well max sync of course...

[chuckle]
You "could" if Openreach provided a product that would go that high.

I assume you can sync at 19999 or maybe 20000. What do you sync at, as a matter of interest? Your stats as per your neighbours might be interesting.

Yes I wouldn't mind Openreach making a product like 100/30 / 90/30...
personally I think they should have set the speeds speeds as follows:

30/10
60/20
90/30
100/40 (Maybe pushing it for FTTC anyway)

I sync at 20000 (G.INP) last time I looked but currently my modem isn't connected to router (apart for WAN of course)

But I will have to as I'm interested in comparing stats also..

You can connect LAN2 of the modem to any spare Ethernet port on your router. It's only the flashing process that is special. This is assuming you have everything on the same subnet of cause - the bridged modem part included.

I have access to my HG612 GUI and telnet whenever I wish, with no messing.

No spare port

Buy a cheap switch .

I have switches just not got them setup

Well I've had a look at my modem stats...

Quiet disappointed as usual... G.INP has been removed from upstream leaving me with a nice amount of errors,

and someone said that G.INP wasn't required!

I've rebooted the modem as its been up for 12/13 days... record breaking in thi house... HeHe!

Now synced down at 67000+ which is a slight improvement over 66000... specially for this time of night...

The firmware was a trial, it'll be rolled out soon probably.

Your line stats look virtually identical so I can't see what the new firmware would give you. Are you on a Huawei cabinet also?

Yeah - https://c2.staticflickr.com/6/5509/10910754085_428e8...

I think Openreach resolved the G.INP themselves, the firmware was fixes for other things i guess

yes , i was hoping for all my speed back lol but its close enough

used to be
03:53:14, 08 Mar. ( 109.780000) PPPoE is up -? Down Rate=79995000Kbps, Up Rate=19999000Kbps; SNR Margin Down=9.5dB, Up=15.5dB

which dropped to
00:51:53, 12 Mar. (338408.950000) PPPoE is up -? Down Rate=75682000Kbps, Up Rate=19997000Kbps; SNR Margin Down=11.7dB, Up=13.6dB

Resolved is one way to put it...

... turned it off

exactly... suppose like kids... they like making a mess but not cleaning it up!

they could of at least stood by their mistakes and tried to rectify them, not just brushed them under the carpet!

Well having it on for me, made me lose speed and gain latency... so it made my line worse, i know it worked well for worse lines....

But IIRC you have an ECI modem, which it turns out you should not have had.

The problem is that your device doesn't work with G.INP. To fix it, you should get a device that does work, not have Openreach turn it off for everyone.

yeah they switched my dead huawei with a eci, fools, but got a HH5A now, so it didnt make a diff

You can easily buy an HG612 and plug the HH5A into that. The HG612 would handle the G.INP.

Exactly what I did.

I've just received a new firmware 204.1.11 homehub 5 type A.

What does this firmware do I have a type a hh5 on a huwaei cab and can't see anything yet.

I pinged multiplay using a smartphone app and was 10/11 ms
