Re: SpeedTouch 516 Tweaking :) Hi,
I agree...
I use Alcatel SpeedTouch since 2001 with the first USB venerable "Green fish".. Then got a ST-510 and be happy for years. I switch to a ST 536 v5 for a while and bought (on Ebay) my ST-546 v6 just 3 days ago.
My line is 4,2 Km and 53 Db attenuation. Of course I can't reach the 8000 Kbps down and 1024 Kbps. DMT helped me to get the maximum (around 3800 /860) depending of the inter-modulation from others lines. Too many Adsl customers around me (more than 45.000 for one DSLAM)
Thanks for nice job.  |

| Hi,
I tried to find some ANSI T1.413 variations, any luck with that?
 |
|
| Within my ST-536 I have tried to play with default tones (12) to 10 or different values. This just affect the Upload margin SNR by moving down the speed from 992 to 776 kbps...
I did not find how to get more download speed with a such long line with 1 km aerial wire copper with at least 20 Connection boxes on the way....!!!  (Clean at home). |

| Hi Old Computer,
I was hoping there could be a way to use some very
old v4.2.x FirmWares on a v6 SpeedTouch but that's
not likely to happen, i also believed that there's
a symetric CLI command for "maxbitspertoneUS" like
"maxbitspertoneDS" but it must have been in awaken
dreams only... Then, what about "extendedBWmode"?
Isn't there any real tweaking which can be done???

| I have to check your suggestion about "maxbitspertoneDS". The CLI is not very easy to read for me - My English is too bad - and there is no French translation for latest version.
About "extendedBWmode"... I have to learn about...
My need (and for others) is to force remote DSLAM to send 1,5 Db more for download in order to increase SNR then Speed sync. I stick with 18 Decibels and DMT when using registers 0E or / and 0D does nothing. |

| Euh...
SRA was supposed to be hidden somewhere inside one
of the MoDemOptions (Register 8, Bit 1), it seems:

| Sorry for late response ...
Sra is supported by all French DSLAM. So it is not a problem with the ST546. (sra is NOT disabled).
In fact, I would force the dslam to send more power to gain a little speed (SNR). With 19.5 db (down) the speedtouch synchronize at 4,228 kbps at home. Actually I got 3616 Kbps and 18 Db. (Seen during long holidays when most people are swimming somewhere...) |

| Hi,
I wish i could experiment with ADSL2+ but Spectrum
Shaping under plain old ADSL will just have to do:

Edmonton, AB | I just wanted to say thanks for posting this information. I got my SpeedTouch 516v6 and was able to get DMT up and going within an hour.
I'm a Telus user, so you can add me to the list of "Telus Experiments". :P
