Is the Sky router rubbish?


[link to this post]
 
Well my current stats are 47dB down with SnR of 7.4dB Im getting between 6-7MBits

However on my other routers I get 38dB down with 8dB Snr on a Draytek 2600G. Also I get 43dB down with 8.7dB on a DG834G.

Neither of the other routers give me a better speed because there is no way of lowering the target SnR so theres no benefit. However why is there such a huge difference between the att'n levels?

The DG834GT does ADSL2+ and as Sky do use this it is possible the figures coming back are different due to different frequencies used.
