That article is unclear on the subject.

It starts off saying "Your IP profile is closely related to the bRAS profile" without saying how related and then goes on using them interchangeably.

As I understand it the BRAS profile includes the sync-time noise margin and the interleaving settings. Probably a few other things as well.

My broadband basic info/help site - www.robertos.me.uk | Domains,website and mail hosting - Tsohost.
Connection - Plusnet Extra Fibre (FTTC). Sync ~ 54.0/14.9Mbps @ 600m. - BQM

Sorry this is not a fix, but just BT doing testing to see what speeds people can connect to.

This is because they are thinking of increasing the download speed, but the new advertising rules state that they must prove that at least 10% of customers can get the speed before they make any changes.

Can you post a link to some corroboration or did you just make it up?

?
But BT Retail sell a BT Wholesale product based on the Openreach 80/20 GEA product. How can anyone connect faster than 80Mbps?

If Openreach now have a faster than 80Mbps FTTC product I'm sure all ISPs would be aware of the BTW product based on it and be able to trial it if they wished.

Is there such a product?

Sorry I am not allowed to post too much information on it at this stage. Other ISP's are aware of it and may take advantage of it once BT have done the testing.

If I understand him right BT are just allowing higher profiles to be set by the system for monitoring purposes, then they use that to see % of lines syncing high enough to get a new 10% figure that allows them to advertise higher speeds. After that its possible a rollout would then occur of a new product which I suspect would replace the current 76mbit product. (which some advertise as 80mbit, like I noticed now we have isps advertising adsl2+ again as 24mbit).

There is only 2 logical reasons why we would be seeing these profiles, either its a fault or BT are considering a new higher speed product.

I think if they were planning a higher speed product they would be shouting it from the rooftops and if it was a fault they'd be keeping quiet wink
