Re: Slow internet

Line Attenuation (dB) 63.5 stands out as something that will limit your speeds. Since you have "Data Path interleaved", somebody has probably addressed your situation to make things work as well as they do with the high attenuation. That said, power-cycling the modem might get it to re-sync at a higher rate. Your SN Margin is surprisingly good.

If your neighbors have DSL, try comparing that attenuation figure with them. If they have 10 dB lower, maybe there is an RT nearby that they are hooked to. In that case, post the facts into direct. If those with the faster connection are not on DSL, then that could mean that you are going as fast as you can on DSL in your location.

I would also consider connecting directly to the NID. If your attenuation went down significantly, consider some rewiring including adding a splitter. I recently dropped my attenuation from about 19 to 17 by adding a splitter and a home run.

Well, that's no better. You might want to have the AT&T Direct forum folks check to see if you have any alternatives, like a nearby RT as StillLearn See Profile suggested.

No trouble. That's what this place should be about. Getting help.
