With that SNR you'll be having a dodgy connection, should be getting 5-6Mbps if in the master

Hi all,
First post on this forum so a big hello to you all.
Sky Broadband Unlimited ordered on the 8th November, delivered on the 12th November and went live on the 23rd November.
Sagem router.
Stats from day 1 are as follows:
System Up Time: 11:20:12
Port Status TxPkts RxPkts Collisions Tx B/s Rx B/s Up Time

ADSL Link Downstream Upstream
Connection Speed 4092 kbps 605 kbps
Line Attenuation 46.5 db 27.0 db
Noise Margin 2.8 db 16.1 db

Sky reckon I can get around 4.0meg so that looks to be where we currently are with testing.
Any thoughts from anyone on what I might get in the end?
Router is plugged into nearest socket to the master socket as I cannot put it there yet, will do so after the testing - hopefully.

As IWNTE says, you have problems, without correction you will be lucky to get 2.5Mb. Post in the Help section including your latest stats and also from your Test socket. Do not reply here as this thread is purely for information and not help.
How to test your ADSL in the Master Test Socket

Just moved over from UKOnline to Sky BB and posted in the Exchange Forum about that.
I, not Sky, mucked up to start with and yes I rebooted router a couple of times when it kept going amber on me, which I know I shouldn't have, anyway Stats as follows:-

Seems to be steadying downwards . Haven't rebooted for 24hours plus so it might pick up. Fingers crossed.

If it doesn't then just call and get it manually configured, should get 12Mbps-ish

DLM will only normally resync your router in the early hours, between 2-3am. So don't look for a change during the daytime. If you have one, try plugging your router into the Test socket, see if your noise margin increases.

When on UKOL, you were on G.DMT, now you are on ADSL2+. This mode is a lot more 'picky' than standard ADSL as it uses a wider frequency range, so any little problem with your wiring will be accentuated. This is why it is important to use the Test socket to establish your full speed potential. With your attenuation and a good line, I would expect you to get around 13Mb.

Sorry the comment in my earlier post should have read Test Socket. Haven't used a faceplate for years.

I am finding that if I am downloading, even if I throttle the application then I lose signal and get an amber light. Is this due to the Router? Used to happen on my DGN2000 but not on the DG834G when I was on UKOL. (PS I realise this is a bit off topic as well.)

Testing your 'new and improved' trollBot? At least your post doesn't contain your usual drivel, I guess.

Just joined up (defected from VM). Was activated as advised 20/12/10 around 3.30pm

Stats upon activation:

ADSL Link Downstream Upstream
Connection Speed 4095 kbps 510 kbps
Line Attenuation 18.0db 9.8db
Noise Margin 15.8db 23.0db

The stats haven't really changed since then. Does that mean DLM hasn't started up yet? And what would I expect to get in terms of speed?
