whar does xdsl help give you?

I'm looking for something like xdsl info --stats
or xdsl info --show

There has to be something that gives more detail .

For instance, the ones you have listed a couple of times, such as your latest post section 2, I would expect to have a block like:-

B:              239             31
M:              1               2
T:              64              36
R:              0               16
S:              0.1910          0.9922
L:              10054           645
D:              1               1
I:              240             80
N:              240             80

Nope.

See the available commands.

Interesting that doesn't have xdsl info.

How about
ip debug stats proto = <ip>
or
ip debug stats proto = <tcp>

Those just give TCP and IP datagram stats (connections etc.).

The examples you gave:

B:
M:
T:

and so on...if you explain what they mean, or at least what you are are trying to see...maybe I can figure it out myself.

I give up .

Unless - I don't know where you got the xdsl info command from, but if I do the equivalent on mine I just get the basic stats. But adding the --info or --show after it gives all the detail.

No idea what most of them are, just that the D: line is the interleaving depth.

But in one of your screen shots I see xdsl info expand=enabled

What does that give, and if "not a lot" how about xdsl info help ?

Just for info - the speedtests today have been very solid 10.5 Meg / 1 Meg.

Regarding the syntax, no luck on that. I do have a command option xdsl config syslog enable/disable, but don't know how to see said log. xdsl info doesn't bring up anything additional after enabling it. Nor do I see any added info via the browser interface.

Might be the page I can't see, that's the problem. Not sure.

That enabled page does look like where it should be. But the likely lines are the Delay and Depth ones. The Depth one doesn't make sense though, with the up having a 2 decimal place number.

The 1 for the downstream would tie in with Fast Path, and the Interleaved description at the beginning could, in cocked-up programmimg, tie in with the 0.00 down, as if that is indeed the line than a value of zero is invalid.

As I said, we know that a 1 in the upstream D: on Netgear 834 series causes mode Fast Path to be reported, even when there is a high number in the downstream D:, so its absence here could cause Interleaving to be reported.

All hypothesis. Only a different router is likely to tell us.

Way back, what struck me before you commented on it was the huge drop in latency on the BQM. That did look like Interleaving being turned off.

In reply to a post by RobertoS:

I know. It had been that low prior to one or two reboots. I had assumed that my pings had shifted due to latency / gateway / DSLAM profiling or something.

Looks like it was fastpath all the time, then interleaving, then back to fastpath. Pity. I was getting 25ms on ADSL1, and was hoping for an improvement (not sure why).

Actually, it's been in the realms of 23ms; The pingtest servers are never quite as good as TBB's ping monitor.
