Pretty grim amount of errors there.. although the quiet line test is utterly silent. Any suggestions as to what I might try?

Is this something that has just happened, and if so what made you look? Or has it been going on for a while and you've only just got round to it?

I'd say it was an internal problem, due to the high upstream HECs and error seconds. The downstream errors are negligible.

It's a friend who was asking about his slow connection (6mbit downstream, 27dB downstream atten). He was looking for his router stats, and I said "here's how mine loo-oo....k. Oh."

I'll have a look at my internal wiring, will see what I can do

Heh!

"Up" errors don't get cleared when you reboot the router as they are kept on the DSLAM. You probably have to force another modulation type to reset them.

Yeah - I was about to ask. I've just gone around and removed all the cables but 2 & 5 from the phone sockets.

That's where we're at now; looks like HEC errors are being remembered.

looking good now

That's a nice gain in downstream sync. Do another re-sync in daylight tomorrow and you should get a bit more.

Keep an eye on upstream error seconds.

Still got an error second; not great!
Either way, I'll resync tomorrow when the sun's up. Turned out that I just needed to do a lap of the place and disconnect all telephone cables bar 2 and 5

dont worry to much about the errors at this point. lets wait until tomorrow and see what the story is after a sunrise reset
