4,484 Mbps is 4.484 Gbps

a little update, not sure, what the engineer did, after visiting all my neighbours, and it's not difficult, no-one called BT for a line fault.

BUT, the only other noticeable thing going on in the hamlet, is someone moved out!

not sure if that was anything to do with it.

typo.....

Okay, I've just come off the phone with Eclipse Technical Support, which have stated they have no idea, WHY my speed of Downstream connection has changed, they've complete line tests, intrusive and non-intrusive, and have stated that I'm within th acceptable BT margin of 1.5 to 4 Meg.

They also stated that it's possible because BT have been adjusting the network, that may speed has been sacrificed for someone, that was not getting acceptable speed, and that's why my Downstream speed is halved, or they have put more houses on the network, and that is the reason by Downstream sync has changed. - This was what I was told, not sure if this is true!

They stated, my line is 4.5km, which last time I heard it was 3.7km.

Eclipse will now set my SNR to 3.0 as the target, rather than 6.0.

We will see if speed improves.

that's because they are included in the Subject!

2.313Mbps

Ummm?

In reply to a post by einsteinagogo:

I turned off the router for 30 minutes now - 2.375 Mbps not a great deal of change.

Are we to assume that hasn't changed, or has it but you consider the change insignificant?

Smart-ass replies aren't likely to endear you to people who are trying to help either. Sub-sets of the stats at best force people to look around for the missing information, and then assume it hasn't changed, and at worst are completely useless as in this case. Stats have to be read as a whole, with all figures taken at the same time.

Ah, I see you posted a full set while I was drafting, and things have changed again. As for the Eclipse

They also stated that it's possible because BT have been adjusting the network, that may speed has been sacrificed for someone, that was not getting acceptable speed, and that's why my Downstream speed is halved

is utter rot. xDSL doesn't work like that. However, if an engineer has swapped a pair for your neighbour, and used yours in the belief it was unused and hasn't bothered to check physically first, it fits with what has happened. We've already discussed this.

(Edit - A pair swap would also explain the length difference. it begins to look like a complete cockup).

What BT emphatically do not do is deliberately take speed off one person to give to another. There isn't a mechanism to do that other than by swapping connections.

or they have put more houses on the network

Drivel.

A speed higher than 2.3 Mbps would be expected, and as said knowing the download and upload speed will help to complete the states, as the interrelationships are not always obvious

Modem is only using ADSL connection protocol, is this an ADSL2+ service? And is modem set to auto negotiate the ADSL mode? If so then try forcing ADSL2 mode if provider is selling you ADSL2+ and leave it like that for a day or two

I do not believe it's ADSL 2+, we were always told, that could be slower. I would have to check.

This uses a BT Home Hub 3.

Good spot! Yuk.
