Is your modem set to auto or ADSL2+? At the moment it is connecting as standard ADSL.

I assuime you have switched off the router - waited a minute - switched back th router
so the router negoated the new speed ?
sometimes it's the simplest things that can trip you up.

Hi, I have done that but no change.

My ISP says that it is a router problem but I cannot find anyway in the Belkin User manual to adjust the downstream speed. Any ideas?

Yes, answer john2007's 2 Qs, rather than ignore them.

ISP may be saying your router is not setting the correct ADSL Mode.

The upstream side of WBC should improve even if the modem was forced onto ADSL mode, so we have

1. Upgraded, but ISP forced an identical ADSL looking profile on user
2. Exchange upgraded, but users line not migrated - most likely

With respect, I have not ignored John's questions. There appears to be no means of adjusting the settings on the Belkin modem. There is no feature in the Router settings screen which shows whether the modem is connected at ADSL pr ADSL2+ or, indeed anything.

Have you explored the hidden pages your Belkin router may have? http://www.kitz.co.uk/routers/belkin_commands.htm

Thanks for the info.

I've tried to access the pages to which you refer but I can't seem to get them up from the normal Belkin setup page. I've asked Belkin Support for help but I'm not holding my breath!

In reply to a post by Tony_the_Turner:

As it says, they are not linked from the main web interface.

I think you need to click on those links directly or copy them to your Browser's Address Bar.

Not really relevant, but may be of interest:

I forced my ADSL2+ Be/O2 connection to g.dmt to get

DownStream Connection Speed 3520 kbps
UpStream Connection Speed 1088 kbps

I then went back to auto (which connects at a capped ADSL2+) to get

DownStream Connection Speed 8188 kbps
UpStream Connection Speed 1151 kbps

(On my old BT standard ADSL I used to get 8128/448).
