With that attenuation you should be getting a lot better speed maybe een the full 16 meg from the package. Should be getting a better upload speed aswell because mine is 29.3db and get about 600 kbps. Might be a problem with the wiring but im no technician.

Re: need help improving my ps3 connection and 360
thats the max package? it looks like youve been capped on both your download and upload, and have lots of room to spare for better speed.
Two reasons i can think of for that,
1 is that there is a mistake, and you just have to get sky to uncap you, or 2 you have a problem with your internal wiring and that is why you were capped

Re: need help improving my ps3 connection and 360
im not on max sorry
i dont know how to change it. iwas on max. what happend was when i orderd skybb i wanted the max as i could get it. then after a week of having around 13meg my routor broke so i had to send for a new1. in that time we had to change are home number which resulted us losing the 16 meg
how i dont know as its the same house same line different number. now are line cuts out when ever a dial tone is on. like if we play online and lose connection 99% its a incoming call or were using it. that hopefully gets sorted today. but i still havent found an answer as to why the 16meg from 1 number went when we went to another number. (its same provider aswell BT) so i think im on base as were normally on 4-6meg. reached 8meg once.
