AC/DC connection cause of high pings?

The settings are here:

Encapsulation: PPPoA
VPI/VCI: 0/38
Multiplexing: VC

Ahh. Thank you very much for the help!

You will get a slightly different sync speed with different chipsets. As your sync is well below 8mb, you might want to try G.DMT as the DSL Mode. Quite often this will give a better result. I would guess you will sync at 4096kbps or better.

Done. Its still running at 3776kbps. What am I doing wrong here? Haha.

Is it anything to do with it being VC based or LLC based?

EDIT: ADSL Link Downstream Upstream
Connection Speed 3776 kbps 768 kbps
Line Attenuation 51 db 15.5 db
Noise Margin 9 db 7 db

I have noticed that my Noise Margin is slightly higher than it was before? Why would it just suddenly change on its own. Surely this is not controlled by the router but by the people at "the other end".

The reason it has gone up is that G.DMT uses less of the frequency than ADSL2+. Some of the interference on your line is occurring in the higher frequency used by ADSL2+, thus reducing your noise margin. Unfortunately your line has been capped at 3776 which means you can get no higher. If it were not capped I would guess you would be syncing at 4384 with a 7 db margin. What you can try is calling Sky and asking them to raise you cap. A 4608/864 setting would be good. You could also ask them to change your line mode to G.DMT and reconfigure the line, but for some reason they are often reluctant to do this.

Hmm. I'll see what I can do. I have rang up sky in the past.
