    Line Attenuation & Noise Margin

    This is a discussion on Line Attenuation & Noise Margin within the Router stats forums, part of the Broadband Technical Help category; They are identical. Just to confirm, this set was taken from the socket behind the faceplate?...

      They are identical. Just to confirm, this set was taken from the socket behind the faceplate?

      No problem.

      In this case I would consider getting the ADSL Extension Lead that was suggested earlier. In them mean time consider leaving the router in this socket for a couple of days if possible.

      Are you in a flat or something
      your line is far shorter than mine so should sync faster
      its also worth replacing the filter with an nte2000 on the master
      this can make a large difference as the sky filters are cheap

      Here's my line for a comparison
      and im actually forcing a slower sync for 0 crc errors

      My line is capable of 22.8 mbit at a 7db margin
      so yours should do 24 with ease unless your in a flat ofc

      That is fine. The price looks good too.

      Re: Line Attenuation & Noise Margin

      The Filtered faceplate replaces your current faceplate.

      If you have any hard-wired extension on the back of your existing faceplate, then you should also look for an IDC tool.

      Otherwise it is just a straight swap from one faceplate to the next.

      I dont have any hard-wired extension on the back of my existing faceplate so will be a case of just one faceplate off and the new face plate screwed on
