Well done!

SNR (dB): 0.4 6.1

Not good! EDIT: It's lost at least 14.6 dB since last resync.

Pwr(dBm): 0.0 12.1

I have always found Down Pwr reported zero since I was on WBC ADSL2+.

Some sort of power-saving mode maybe? Does it go up if you start a download?

Some strange goings on here still!!

By setting the SNR via the telnet session, my download speed dropped dramatically. Although synced at 14655Kbps, the max i could download at was around 500k. Did a hard reset on the router, let it resync (11355Kbps) and download speeds were back to about 1180Kbps SNR was reported at 4.4db and dropped to 4.2 when downloading.

Things are looking a bit better now. Found a good page on what parameters to set the SNR with:

Netgear 3700 - Setting Target SNR

I used 25 which dropped my SNR to 1.6. Nicely syncd and a good steady download speed of 1508kbps on the newsgroups.

I know my router will reset sometime soon and this sync speed will be lost, but at least i know i can get a fair amount more from the connection than where i was last night.

You mean K Bytes per sec (KBps)?

Sorry, that should have read KBps.

Odd, ADSL2+ on Sky seems to report the correct power output in my Netgear.

So did Orange on LLU before it went WBC. So I put it down to a peculiarity of BTw WBC.
