And...
Lets not forget an old customisation idea of mine:
«Just thoughts: if my Twin PPP configuration could be adapted to switch ISPs automatically in case of a disconnection then a customer who needs to reach his home PC(s) remotely would have a better chance to do so.»

Also (while i'm at it)... What about adding value to our STs by making them even more customisable?:

It seems my thread was interrupted at this point:

Progress! At last...
Looking at the amplitude of yesterday's peaks from 12 h to 18 h i notice that those of today, between 7 h and 11 h, were fainter except the last sample. |

I've concatenated the present thread as a one-time post which became my conclusion for this other one because together they cover the wiring part fully:

I also addressed configuration aspects thru a link to my "tweaks" thread, which completes the picture as far as an average customer will be concerned... |

| reply to Bicephale Bonjour Old Computer,
I want you to see this, the ferrite trick works so well i find it hard to believe. See for yourself:

It seems i'm accumulating paradoxal static records here! Sometimes what your see isn't what you get:

J'ai beau informer les gens de cette situation, il semble que même les usagers réguliers du forums ne remarquent pas les avis en grosses lettres rouges:

Peut-être aurez vous des arguments convainquants à formuler, moi j'ai eu beau essayer on m'ignore!...
Perhaps you have better teaching skills than i do, your input on these contradictory readings is more than welcome. Your experience with radio HardWare might be usefull, can you shead some light for us?

For example, how come do i worsen attenuation just by removing toroidal chokes on the DSL phone input considering we could expect the signal to be a bit stronger once it's been taken off? Is it possible that what i've got here is acting like a "loading" coil but for DSL frequencies? Lets not forget the SNR Margin numbers and Spectral Response curves... Am i right to think it's ironic to obtain mediocre noise performance with an SNR Margin of almost ten more dB, not to mention the nicer spectral curve?!
I thought this was an interesting riddle you might want to know of. What's on your tongue? Tell me!

| Hi Bicephale,
I can't reproduce such graphs with my ST546 V6 but I have changed the house internal wiring completely last week end. I have now a direct twisted pair 0.8mm wire from the outside connector witch belong to FT. I have installed the master filter you have the diagram (nice filter) just close but inside the house. I have gain around 300 kbp/s all day with the same SNR due to the auto-adaptive DSLAM keeping 7db SNR. On 24h I got around 60 to 80 CRC errors only with the latest 7xx Firmware. Also I have put some more "ferrites / Core " on each switching power supply in my room. So, I am happy with that results. (53 db attn - 4200m from RCO)

| Bonjour Old Computer,
I wish Bell (our phone company like France Telecom is yours) were offering such quality DSL filters!:

Hummm... But i guess FT doesn't carry it neither; you had to build it yourself, as i recall! Right?

| Hi Bicephale Sorry to disappoint you, but the filter is not mine.  I don't have enough good equipment to achieve so good results, and maybe not the intellectual capacities.. lol You need at least a spectrum analyser, oscilloscope (I have one) and a good BF / HF generator. (And all characteristics of the tores used for). I got it 1 year ago. It is from Alcatel but not sold public. Was installed by FT some years ago on request. A nice one is the LEA Filter PCE2B0P-20, but I never could get the diagram. »www.leacom.fr/page.php?rubrique=···c76e6b88 You can grab the specs in .pdf format.

At least, some effort is being made to characterize the Lea filters...
My only disapointment is that it may be pointless to ask Bell for this!

1 edit | I already opened the Alcatel filter. BTW you can't see the cores or capacitors. The box is filled with a sort of hf brown glue. 
Edit : How it looks .. and if you want to buy one ... »speedtouchdsl.de/shop/product_in···uage=en& |

| I got this about Specs of LEA filters: Have a look on the attachment.
With one standardized pinning it is possible to place xDSL filters like the ITU-T G992.1 Annex A (POTS +E1) 600 Ohm and ETSI ATA TS 101 952 -1-1 option (A) and ETSI ATA TS 101 952 -1-1 option (B) on one PCB layout. |
