You can get the stats from that.

Slow connection speed for the attenuation/length of line.

Another thought - just in case. Is this the only wire out of the junction box? I'm also not happy with "comes down my house with a few meters of slack on it". That doesn't sound like a BT job so may be DIY from before you moved there. Is there another entry point near the top of that?

Yes there used to be a porch that's no longer there hence the slack.
I take it you mean slow connection if I had interference and not that I have?, I also wondered with the hH5 can i get better stats to show attenuation on fttc faster broadband and adsl2+?

It's probably the old 2 pair (blue/orange & green/brown) internal cable. Nowt wrong with it in my experience.

Which is now the new cable ! but with a white outer covering .

Everything I've read said you can't in the HH4

Open the admin page for the router, http://192.168.1.254

take the advanced settings tab at the top

log in (the admin password is on the little card on the back of the router, or underneath if you've lost that.

the broadband tab should get you somewhere near the detail

I can't remember exactly as I'm on FTTC and it doesn't show stats for that, just adsl

It will not be "bell wire" just that it looks like it. BT did use a version of dropwires in that config and I have often seen the last few metres in place, inside the property, when the external has been changed.

You may not actually notice anything wrong however the electronic noise is permanently raising the noise floor and as your modem maintains a nominal 6dB margin you speeds could be lower. At 30cm with untwisted cable - there is the potential for pickup. Not really much you can do except move the electronics a little further away, if possible.

Hence hoping to see the full stats to judge what is or isn't going on.

I don't think that full stats are available from the HH4. IIRC, BTr locked them down so that only basics such as attenuation and sync are available.

Was this the grey solid core stuff?
