Thank you!

I think my line must have a fault on it somewhere, my upload is higher than yours but download a lot slower - since upload is more sensitive on FTTC I would like to think I can get close to a similar download to you.

I will speak with my ISP. Hopefully they should investigate since 10 is quite a bit below the guaranteed 13 I was given.

DLM has not applied any further changes for me since the other day, its kept me on interleaved at 10 sync:

It would probably be helpful to see the output of xdslcmd info --pbParams (note the capital P).

Just had a thought, when you flashed your modem with the 08 firmware did you by any chance use the kill command to stop firmware updating by BT? If you did then your modem won't update with G.inp, as least I don't think so but if I am wrong am sure someone will correct me.

You don't need btagent running for G.INP. Once you have the B030SP08 firmware installed on an HG612, your end supports G.INP. The decision on whether to use G.INP is down to the equipment in the cabinet.

Yeah exactly G.INP will only turn on if the cabinet thinks it's needed.

Thank you, I stand corrected

Here you go mate, what is this showing:

A sort of description is that the Discovery Phase is where it discovers what frequencies are being transmitted, and the Medley Phase is when it has whittled those down to what are usable. In your case that is "Not much". See mine:-

so would this indicate something wrong with the line or is it just a case of too far from the cabinet?

Marie could you post these stats for your line if possible and you dont mind? Thank you.

Here you are, hope it helps. Marie.
