448/832

Why would the Netgear say I am on G.DMT with that upload speed?

Has anyone got any knowledge of forcing a Netgear onto ADSL2 or 2+? Maybe I am doing it wrong.

I untick all the modes apart from ADSL2 or 2+ and then let it sync - which it fails to do.

It's possible you are now on the 21CN MSAN on an ADSL2+ circuit, but with your line parameters set ADSL(1) profile by the ISP. I think this is often done deliberately, for a few reasons, and you have to get them to set it to ADSL2+.

When this happens you usually see quite a bit higher upload than 896kbps, but I suppose that's feasible.

Have you asked support?

Yes, the customer has.. and is confirmed as already set on the correct product, but we're already in discussions with them about the issue

You are still on ADSL as your sync rates can be divided by 32.

Also, you can achieve an upload sync higher than 448/832 on ADSL as these were just artificial caps set by BT.

It's all sorted now - not sure what the issue was but Xilo were straight on the case as always.

Happily running on ADSL2 at just over 6Mb - not bad for a 52db line

Good news .

The stats now please?

ADSL Link Downstream Upstream
Connection Speed 6120 kbps 1116 kbps
Line Attenuation 49.0 db 24.0 db
Noise Margin 6.8 db 5.5 db

The upload speed has shot up this morning. It would not go higher than 888kbps no matter what ADSL mode I used.

The thing I am most happy about is the fact on ADSL2 it will hang on to that sync over night when things get noisy. ADSL1 would re-sync.

, but you've left the mode out this time. ADSL2+/G.992.5? (Doubtful that it is ADSL2/G.992.3).

It's G.992 so ADSL2.
