Any idea what went wrong? What do the line stats look like?

Speeds seem to be about 17mbit down when getting files from good servers. Have noticed with the st546v6 you can tweak down to 1db using DMT which gives a sing of about 19.5 mbit but FEC errors really ramp up quickly with a few CRC errors per min.

So far am sync'ing at just under 19 mbit at 2db and its dark with only 0.5 db variation to 2.5db on that. Not going to get much more out of it. Wonder what the 7800 would do. Dont want wireless no need for it but even the wired 7800 aint cheap and mostly out of stock. Will have to keep eye open.

Vivaciti Mini Review


[re: Banger] [link to this post]
 
Speeds seem good on the o-bit network. Getting 16.5 mbit from LA and NY in the US according to speedtest.net and this seems to hold any time of the day. Port 8095 is seriously throttled during the day (8-6pm) but testing with port 80 gives good consistent speeds throughout the day. Will reserve judgement on speeds for a few weeks but no sign of the Zen peak slowdowns I used to experience down to 1 mbit.

P2P is throttled throughout the day and there seems to be an amount of throttling out of peak hours with the TBB speedtest on port 8095 down to 10 mbit out of peak hours. If you do a lot of P2P, which I dont or NewzBin, especially during the day, this package is not for you. If you do alot of browsing and standard downloads on standard ports I would totally recommend this Variety package.

Theres also free webspace and email with this package but you have to apply for that and once it is set up the cpanel has loads of options for FTP, webspace, loads of email addresses.

Only thing I cant get used to is no usage counter, I know it's a 100Gb FUP with no penalty but will have to rely on DU Meter for my usage stats.

Last but not least my ST546v6 has held 2db over night quite admirably giving me a sync of 19mbit. FEC errors have slowed down considerably, which is a releif as the router tends to reboot in the 10s of Millions of errors. Why do you need to count FEC's anyway! Oh well maybe time for a Billion 7800 with IPv6 support.

With this package there is a bolt on that will remove all restrictions and make it completely unlimited, but does have a cost associated with it.

Is the cost one off or a monthly fee?
