In reply to a post by RobertoS:

with the left-hand figure being Local - which means to do with the upstream.
...
The Remote, ie downstream ones

You have mixed up your "downstream" with your "upstream". The 1st (L) figure is downstream, as the column headings indicate.

Whatever has happened seems to have made it better.
It looks like it has changed my noise margin... just uploaded some images via FTP and they flew up.

Will post some more stats tomorrow see how it compares...
I am assuming (from what I have read) there will be some changes in the noise margin over the next few days as it tests the line.. or is that only for non LLU lines.

I agree that's how it looks, but as I remember it that section has headings Local/Remote, which don't seem to be present in that listing. Local is definitely upstream.

So you could be right - the reset will tell us as one set won't go to zero. Which reminds me ..., must do a Reply to nidave because of this question.

After you have restarted the router, please can you read and post the stats pretty soon after. So we can confirm which figures are which. As per XRaySpeX.

OK, let's see how it goes.

The darn thing has cleared both Local and Remote . I wonder if that is because of being off for a while. How long did you turn off for?

You didn't try the O2 box in between did you?

Interestingly the syncs are identical. Strange that.

Edited by RobertoS (Tue 30-Aug-11 22:47:33)

Altho' it is not a DG834GT or DG834Gv4, those adslctl results are identical to them. There were never "Local/Remote" headers. The headers are here:

Also the later sections of errors over time (adsl info stats) only report the lower (LH) ES values, which relate only to Down.

So there is no need to wait to confirm

In reply to a post by RobertoS:

I suspect he did not restart router, but merely did a soft Disconnect/Reconnect" which results in a LCP Down/Up without any resync.

Confirmed by Uptime of 1h 45m going back to about 20:57, same as previous set of stats.

/me shoots himself.

Even odder that both local and remote ES have zeroised then.

It was off for 40 min (I forgot about it).
I didn't try the O2 box - I don't like the router.
