Re: Bell tech suggesting switching from ADSL to ADSL2+ Modem

Deadpool, which modem is better for stability in your opinion?

The ADSL2+ 2Wire 2701-HG or the older ADSL Speedstream 4200 on a 5 Mbit line?

Maybe you should ask HiVolt instead but i think that
whichever brand/model generates the fewer CRC errors
with RCO figures below 90 % would win. In the end, i
guess the customer who wants to know what's best for
him just needs to try every single DSL device on sale!...

@bell.ca

i havent seen any proof that adsl2 offers a better connection a longer distance. the errors aour out of this world and at primus we jsut change the connection over to dmt and that usually fixes the distance issue related to speeds.

you may have other info but im juts going by what i see firsthand. adsl2 is great if your close to the co. otherwise it has pretty much proven to be a waste of an offering

how many people on here are getting primus 7 megs, how many people in the bell forums are on the 16 or 12 meg whatever it is they are offering. truth it that standard just doesn t seem to have worked out as a viable option

We've been seeing better results in the field with the 2701.
