Re: Broadband ADSL Help

["Mark Golledge" <markgolledge@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Ok,

I've done some checks. According to speedtest, I'm getting download speeds
of 1946kb/s and upload speeds of 367kb/s. I know that I've previously been
achieving download speeds of 3000kb/s so something is not right there.

Both those speeds are what is being achieved on the laptop (and desktop
PC).

However, just gone into Netgear settings and downstream connection speed is
showing 3488kb/s and upstream 448kb/s.

Any ideas?

Line attenuation is showing 53db downstream and 15.5db upstream and snr is
showing 3bd downstream and 19db upstream. Line attentuation seems kind of
high and snr low (should be the other way around I think).
