Re: FTTC Cab Connections

This may come out wrong but I don't mean anything by it.
When th OP Eng came to install my Infinity I gave him a cup of coffee, he said hey this is great coffee so I asked him did he want another 1 (I make my own with different beans) and he said yes, any way Infinity all installed and up and running, we were chatting about this and that and he kept looking at my coffee pot so I asked him want another 1, yes please he said, on his way out I told him if he was installing any more around in and he wants a coffee call in, not thinking he would but he did and does (Hence above) and we chat about Infinity et all and thats how I know. lol.
My estimated speed I think was 35Mb/s down and 7Mb/s up and as I've said on here when they started to lay the cables my main green cab fell to bits and they had to install a new, so maybe thats the reason things are good around here.
By all accounts there are another 8 people waiting to swap to infinity.

LOL - good tip there!

Your estimate suggests your line is a little shorter than the most-borderline cases around here. I think people of around 500 meters, with estimates of 30-31mbps have managed to get 40Mbps. From the look of the VDSL speed-distance graphs, they are within limits (ignoring crosstalk), but outside the limits when crosstalk is applied.

I suspect your estimate of 35 gives you a little more margin.

All the same, having that main customers on there is a good test of the crosstalk, and probably a good sign for BT's profit margin!

I've just received my monthly report card from my SamsKnows BB Performance Testing.

Downstream throughput 38.83Mbps (Average) Min 13.35Mbps Max 40.27Mbps
Upstream throughput 8.96Mbps (Average) Min 7.50Mbps Max 10.15Mbps
Latency 13.60ms (Average) Min 12.17ms Max 79.78ms
Packet loss 0.35% (Average) Min 0% Max 1.66%

Looks very good to me and any happy with my Infinity.

Those are good numbers, thanks for posting. It shows the wide range, but even on the low point was was similar to my BE 16meg ADSL2+.

Here's mine:
Downstream throughput 14.86Mbps (Average) Min 13.68Mbps Max 15.68Mbps
Upstream throughput 1.12Mbps (Average) Min 0.57Mbps Max 1.47Mbps
Latency 9.2ms (Average) Min 7.27ms Max 111.50ms
Packet loss 0.70% (Average) Min 0.00ms Max 19.69%

I'm still waiting for an FTTC cabinet frown

Seems odd that both of our Latency MAX are very high???
I just been looking at my Dashboard and I've got some very speeds results at 23:00 every other night, my Downstream throughput drops but my Upstream throughput goes up, are your's the same?????????

In a month of testing, I'm not that surprised. It might have been only one ICMP test packet that was high.

Nope - I get pretty much flat lines for download and upload on a 24hr basis.

Just an off-topic question - is your BQM spikes normal?

That usually means you haven't enabled ICMP pings from the WAN (internet) side in your router.

But the BQM is also only really useful if you have a static IP, and I think Infinity uses dynamic.
