Sorry for confusion. I was on 21CN with ADSL1 profile for about 6 month and everything was ok. Then last week ADSL24 customers got an 'upgrade' that meant going onto their LLU service. Soon as i got put on that i was on full ADSL2+ and i think the higher frequency that runs at is making things more unstable

I have an option for DSL Mode and can select either Auto, ADSL2+ or ADSL(G.DMT)

Would ADSL1 be ADSL(G.DMT) and will that work? Seems too simple

Yes, G.DMT! saves messing with TELNET.

Thanks, will give it a try if the line doesnt become more stable soon

Well, OP did say he was on 21CN and I took his word for it (until proved otherwise).

Cor, you don't 'alf go on!

No, I need to lend them to you!

I answered the Q as it was propounded:

It is irrelevant that he is now on LLU; the Q was asked in the context of 21CN.

LOL, indeed you did. But he clearly didn't mean to ask the question as propounded. As you say, it is irrelevant. My guess is he is one of the many who do not know that 21CN is irrelevant to LLU.

Just to put this point to bed, hopefully.

Alternatively, OP was asking about how it was before he went LLU, which is how I took it. Nevertheless, as you say, the answer to this point has no relevance to the main issue.

Seems i am getting noise spikes that knock the connection out, however these spikes never happened on ADSL1. I know ADSL2+ runs at a higher frequency, so what could potential cause noise spikes on the line now that wasnt their on ADSL1?

It runs on the same frequencies as ADSL(1), plus the same number of frequencies above them. It's just a fact of life that the higher frequencies are more likely to be affected by noise.

Whether it is that they are more sensitive, or whether there is more other stuff around at those frequencies, or both, I don't know.
