Advice Ref 2 lines.


[link to this post]
 
Hi, I am seeking some advice from you experts that frequent this forum. I have two lines at my home one with BT and one with Be.

My question to you is would I be better to switch the services around as my second line suffers from noise, I know that the first one only has a 05Mb connection but I never see any noise on that line and if you look at the RCO value it never goes below 9600kbps.

Am I living in dream land here or does the line with the 0.5Mb connection look far better than the line which as my ADSL2+ on.

Any comments would be appreciated here are the two links showing the different stats via DMT.

Thanks.

Just to add to this when I do a BT broadband check against the lines the BT lines as an estimate that can acheive up to 7Mb and the Be line says it can get up to 3.5Mb, not sure if this is just a database error or something.

looks like you say. The BT Max estimate is based on electrical properties of the line so presumably picking up the same issue as the real live data.

Thanks for the reply yarwell,

what I should have asked is, would I be better off switching the ADSL2+ connection to my existing BT 0.5MB line which according to the DMT screenshots looks a more stable line, or am I being mislead by the DMT graphs and when ADSL2+ is applied to this line it would also have the same issues.

I thought that someone could advice from the two screen shots that one is better than the other.

yes the second line looks better and you should either change it to Max or go LLU on it.
