In a word no! your attenuation is too high to support a stable connection on adsl2

[charmed12007]

thanx for the quick response

[Sky_Surfer]

No problem but a word of advise check back on this thread as im no stats expert. From the little knowledge I have I say no!! But you can be sure one of the stat experts will correct me if im wrong.

You're absolutely right Sky_User.

A reasonable rule of thumb is that if you're on G.DMT and your attenuation is over 45db, G.DMT is best (same speed as ADSL2+ but more stable), at 40-45db there may be an improvement in speed switching to ADSL2+ but stability will be less good so it isn't advised, under 40db and ADSL2+ should give more speed and the same stability.

If you're already on ADSL2+ then you need to add 2-3db to the above.

Different lines behave differently so only use the above as an indication not a guarantee.

thanks again just trying to get something for nothing lol

From the horses mouth so to speak! lol

I gave my advise on what I have previously read from Saturdays posts and those that are interested might find this tutorial by the aforementioned horse of use!
