IP Profile question

My Homehub is connecting at 9452 but BT speedtester shows IP profile as 5500, how can BT say my profile is 8000 ?
My best speedtest result is 5596

Ta,
Del.

If your profile was 5500 you would not get a result of 5596, as that would be impossible

Not true with BT's tester on 21CN...

Download speed achieved during the test was - 10483 Kbps
For your connection, the acceptable range of speedsis 1000-99999 Kbps.
Additional Information:
Your DSL Connection Rate :11229 Kbps(DOWN-STREAM), 1014 Kbps(UP-STREAM)
IP Profile for your line is - 10000 Kbps
The throughput of Best Efforts (BE) classes achieved during the test is - 20.22:20.19:59.58 (SBE:NBE:PBE)
These figures represent the ratio while sententiously passing Sub BE, Normal BE and Priority BE marked traffic.

Along with a lot else on 21CN, it appears to be broke.

Latest test results -
Test1 comprises of Best Effort Test: -provides background information.

As Bill says - the BT 21CN DLM, including the IP Profile sytem, is a mess and has been for well over a year. (Ever since it was introduced on Entanet products).

Just consider yourself lucky you are getting more than it says. Many more people are getting a fraction of what it says .

Strange, never really seen much in regards to 21CN lines, mostly 20CN

I do, I'm just confused.

Yes it is enabled.

The highest upstream connection speed on ADSL Max is 448kbps for consumer connections and 832kbps for "business" lines. The highest download connection speed is 8128kbps.

I've never seen those mis-reported. Just several cases on ADSL2+ the same effect as you have, and lots of cases where the actual is wayyyyyyyyyy below the profile - and long before the football started.

Thanks RobertoS,
I accidentally re-booted the Hub while Hoovering this morning and the results are much better.

Could be BTw tweaking the line , 'cos I ? it with CS.
