Hi, so we joined O2 about a week ago. For that week the internet seemed to work fine, so my family tells me. I was in France so I wasn't using it.
Yesterday I came back to England and the internet regularly started to disconnect.
After about 2-3 hours it would disconnect and take about 3-5 minutes to work again.
Here are some of my router stats, if you need more please tell me how to get to them:

One thing I noticed is that today morning the internet was working fine until I opened up Modern Warfare 3. Is this weird? Because last week Thursday, the day before I left, when I opened the game it was fine.
Is raising the SN Margin the only way to solve this? Because our speeds are only 5mb, and I don't really want to go any lower.
Also, is 5mb the speed which we should be getting?
Many Thanks,

6 Meg downstream isn't great for ADSL2+ on a 33dB line, is it the same in the test socket behind the master faceplate ?
The stats showed it had been up for 11 minutes on the connection with the router on for 15 - did you power it off and on ?

I'm not going to complain about the 6mbs, yeah it's a tad slow but I don't want to go to the effort of the test socket. I'm lazy...
Regarding your link, do you think that could be the problem?
When my internet is working, it works fine, it's just the disconnections that's the problem.

That's my router event log. Is there anything there which looks out of place?

Then there is no point.
Testing in the test jack of the NTE would have proved whether the fault you are complaining of, is down to your internal wiring/set up, and allowed folk to tell you what sync rate you should have been getting downstream.

Sorry, worded it badly.
It's not slow speeds I'm concerned about, it's the disconnections.
|
|
|
Have you tried the TEST SOCKET in case your internal wiring or equipment is effecting things?
|
|
|
you haven't told us enough about these "disconnections" - you seem to have restarted the router a short while before posting each time.
Does the DSL line resync - watch the lights - or is the router rebooting itself, or do you lose internet traffic and reboot it, or...........
If you're too lazy to see how the stats change in the test socket I'm not sure I'm motivated enough to guess what might be wrong without adequate information

Which light is the DSL light?
And yeah, I know I'm too lazy to check out the test socket, but I just came back from France and was expecting to relax, not to go around unscrewing faceplates and such
>_<
I'll probably get round to the test socket within 1-2 days, but not now, sorry.
