So wait, after reading this little blurb again, it states that you cannot change the interleave setting at the CO? I thought you could swap this to "Fast-Path" mode??
The information available is vague. I'm hoping some tech types might contribute. Fast-path vs interleaving are options on the Cisco 675 ADSL home router .. »www.cisco.com/univercd/cc/td/doc···ap04.htm indicates this, but there is no sign interleaving can be disabled, or checked for, on other brands of home ADSL equipment. Since closed boxes rely on the remote DSLAM for their settings, Interleaving may be a rollout choice of the DSL network and not user selectable.
reply to Karl Bode Defanitely(sp?) very interesting. What about us Covad customers that signed up for ADSL service and recieved SDSL modems because this was all they were set up for? I signed up for 384/128 but during nice conditions I have seen it send at just under 300Kb/s, averaging around 250Kb/s.
I get 30ms to my first hop. This is not that bad considering my first hop is physically located in Wash DC and I am in Boston. Of course 10ms would be better .
