Hi,
I have a BE ADSL2 connection.
There's a big speed difference between my two routers. The "bebox" that the ISP provided gives me approx 11mbps, but the Safe@Office box I have, which I use for VPN connectivity only seems to peak at about 8mbps.
Any ideas?
Here's the WAN config of the safe@office box:
>show net wan
wan:

netmask 255.255.255.252

are you talking about the data throughput here or the sync speed ? If the former, is this via VPN or on a straight connection.

I mean the data throughput, using speed tests.
No VPN.

do they connect at the same speed ?

I think so - the Safe@office doesn't actually list a connection speed.
|

Hmm. The most obvious candidate is that one is connecting at 8M with G.dmt and the other is using ADSL2+ at a faster speed.
Without the connection speed we would be guessing.

The Safe@Office is configured for ADSL2+...
What am I missing...

OK, new question then. How do I determine the connection speed on a Safe@Office 500W?
|
|

time to RTFM or ask the support.
does it have a 'show dsl' or similar command ?

Hmm.
As far as I know, the only config available is in the original post.
The nearest I've found is:
>show net wan uprate
uprate unlimited
>show net wan downrate
downrate unlimited
But I suspect this relates to the bandwidth management, which I believe is switched off.
Support has been poor - I think they intended these routers to be provided by ISPs, and don't want much to do with them now they're in the wild.
I guess they should have re-badged them!
I'll go through the manual & release notes again, but I don't think it's covered...

it's in the CLI ref manual, as one would expect.
info adsl parameters

aha - thanks for this.
The output means next to nothing to me, other than to confirm the uplink of only 7101kbps:

you could try
set port adsl trellis enabled
which may help the speed. Also
set port adsl standard adsl2plus
is worth a go

I think i've pretty much chenged every adsl setting available now, though I'm obviously hacking away blindly.
Whatever i try, the TX won't go over 7104...
