80/20 not fast enough? try bonding

Quite pleased with this result..

I'm maxing out around the 140MB/s mark with my bonded connection.

~150 meters from the cab, using a Mikrotik RB751G-2HnD

Nice - your upload is faster than my download speed

My speeds took a jump (For the better) this morning 16 days after upgrading to 80/20 but nothing like that!

I thought bonded FTTC was 200/60Mbps ... still falling short of the advertised speed there!

Still that is impressive.

on a 80/20 service and bonded with 2 lines is 160/40, it ain't rocket science

Meh! I was just referring to the advertised speeds. Looking at this again that is for 3 lines bonded. Can't understand why that isn't advertised at 240/60Mbps.

I'd guess your guaranteeing yourself some crosstalk if 3 lines come all the way into the same property and are used simultaneously.

I'm not with Fluidata so have no idea where they get 200/60 from but checking the webpage it says "up to" so is actually pretty meaningless and doesn't mention how many circuits are being combined.

My lines only sync at around 60/20 because of the cabinet distance and there's also an overhead to the multilink protocol, overall I'm quite pleased, the upload speed has made our offsite backup run a lot faster.

@tuff I'm also using a MikroTik router, the 450G, it has the 680mhz cpu which can be overclocked to 800mhz, current CPU stats are: Max: 59%; Average: 4%; Current: 1%

@kris My modems are unlocked and I've not noticed crosstalk effecting the sync speeds or SNR margin.

I was going to try bonding with IDNet, bought that router but the configuration of it looked an absolute nightmare. Decided against it
