Doesn't work on the HG612
Not true!!!
You clearly don't believe me, couldn't be bothered asking Les-70 or did ask, but couldn't follow his very clear & SIMPLE instructions
It does work on VDSL2 connections using a HG612 (with the updated firmware).
HERE IS THE PROOF (NOT A WRONG ASSUMPTION)
While the connection is live, type this at a Telnet BusyBox prompt.
You can use different values, but make sure the last value exceeds the total of the first 2 values added together:-
xdslcmd configure --mod v --maxDataRate 20000 20000 100000
That results in these sync speeds on my connection:-
06/07/2014 18:31 - RESYNC detected (DS 19998 Kbps, US 3949 Kbps), AS = 58, Retrain Reason: 1
Typing this will allow the connection return to its prevous state (not manually user capped):-
xdslcmd configure --mod v --maxDataRate 0 0 0
06/07/2014 18:46 - RESYNC detected (DS 21728 Kbps, US 3778 Kbps), AS = 14, Retrain Reason: 1
This is before manually capping DS sync speed:-

EDIT:
The change does not survive a reboot or power up/down. It will however survive a resync caused by any other reason e.g DLM.

Thanks for providing the answer in this forum, rather than some other. However, as I said, doesn't work for me. Maybe I need the latest firmware?
|
|
|
|
Which version do you have?
AFAIK, this is the latest version, as used on my connection:-
xdslcmd --version
xdslcmd version 1.0
DSL PHY: AnnexA version - A2pv6C038m.d24j
******* Pass *********

Because it is testing your neighbour's line?
Yep, the tests all run from either the PSTN equipment, or the TAMS associated with the reported directory number, which in the OP's case was on his neighbours line.

I was rather rudely told to get lost  , so withdrew from trying to help. That it may be confusing Openreach seems to be regarded as irrelevant by the OP and everyone else, when it is perfectly obvious from the engineer going to the wrong premises in the first place proves it isn't.
Edit - Any idea how this could come about and a service work?
Edit 2 - To me it sounds like one D-side wire slowly coming off.

I wasn't rude and I didn't tell you to get lost.
I had typed a very long response trying to explain everything but I've realised it's more for BT's complaints department than for public consumption. I get that you are trying to help so here are three snippets:
I had already said BT's offshore support agents have ordered the renumbering many times but it has failed every time. The renumbering procedure is obviously broken.
It also didn't matter that the TAMS or whatever were connected to my neighbour's line because the engineer was able to run virtually the same tests from the cabinet. He told me so and he was still able to run some tests from the NTE5. When he was testing at my house he said something about a "dis" at 400 metres but he said something along the lines of he was "out of his comfort zone without a pair test" so he went to the cabinet to do a similar test. He said my line from the cabinet to my house is about 475 metres long.
And remember most customers speak only to BT's offshore support agents. The phone support system is designed to put you through to the offshore support team almost every time but it wasn't until I got through to the UK support team that I believed I was speaking to someone who has the authority to deal with an intermittent fault. I also figured out how I got through to the UK team. Obviously I won't explain as it's unlikely the UK team are equipped to handle a large number of the offshore support traffic. I'll give a clue in case someone in BT is reading this and assumes I'm making it up. The clue is "the last warning is said with a stern voice" and I doubt BT will change it.

Ah. Using that older version explains why this doesn't work for you:-
# xdslcmd configure --mod v --maxDataRate 0 0 0
xdslcmd: invalid parameter for option --mod
#
If you do ever update the firmware to the current version & test the sync speed capping, please let us know how you get on.
It may be a useful tool for dealing with problematic connections that seem to keep switching between interleaved & fastpath modes and/or for gamers that wish to maintain a fastpath connection, albeit at a slightly lower sync speed.
