Re: POTS Splitter changed my life (sort of!) Hi again,
I forgot to make myself clear about choking the WAN side... Well, i don't recall it's been verified with numbers from other DSL customers but i've seen a slight improvement in terms of RCO figures if a ferrite choke was put on the MoDem's phone cord, near it's casing... This was done with help from 'DMT' Spectral Response and "Noise" graphs: i started with twenty runs and then i removed a turn after each measurement. In the end, i chose the number of turns that made my graphs better.
It was still a somewhat intuitive procedure, your results may vary but if it works then why not! On another hand, i must comment that the seasons affected the quality of my DSL signal, apparently; a method which used to work months ago might happen to bring marginal benefits later, or even worst: once the phone line is back to normal the choke might as well become a nuisance itself... |
