Thanks for the suggestion, MLP certainly sounds like
it is quite a dynamic project, from what i can read!

:D

I'm simply too involved with DSL technology to even
consider switching to cable until at least Christmass
but the chances are that cable might win the battle,
eventually, should DSL turn out to be unsatisfying.

Unequaled speed options become available in the 65 $
range with Cable offers by Videotron (and/or possibly
ElectronicBox), after all; only, i make some moves
slowly and i won't know what it will be for quite a
while - at least until i've seen enough SpeedTouch vs
SpeedStream comparisons, etc. I wonder if MLP isn't
an option for some MoDem FirmWares, actually...]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20756510 Mon, 07 Jul 2008 23:38:38 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20754620 Guspaz : Interleaved isn't all that bad... That said, I'd rather not be on interleaved ;)

If money is no object, you can always bond two DSL lines using MLPPP. Your effective speeds will be equal to or greater than one single line.

JayMan is doing much the same thing. The best he can get is 3/800, so he bonds two lines to get 6/1.6. If you consider downstream performance, he gets almost identical performance with his two lines on my single 6/800 line. Of course, his upstream is a tad better ;)

Due to the amount of interest in MLPPP, it's now fairly well understood how to implement it on most platforms. As such, it has never been easier to use. There are also currently certain other benefits, involving certain "satanic boxes", as JF would put it ;)

EDIT: Errm, that assumes that you're still on an ISP that supports MLPPP. Velcom does, TekSavvy does, eBox supposedly does (going to try to get a test account from them to work with), and Acanac will in the future.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20754620 Mon, 07 Jul 2008 16:52:33 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20751490 Bicephale : Oh, and i forgot to mention those statistics were
gathered via TelNet from my GNet GBB2060-Xi, on a
text-mode TelNet client (e.g. 'Kermit' for Linux)...]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20751490 Mon, 07 Jul 2008 00:36:50 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20743777 Bicephale : Hi HiVolt,

I have confidence in your informed opinions so if
something is wrong it's the wall-to-wall Interleaved
solution we get when Bell's wiring fails to the task!

From the looks of it this might be the best i can hope
for if i fail to clean my domestic wiring starting from the
demarcation point. By the way, the person who came
home to deal with Bell's old bakelite item was quite
surprizingly pleasant to talk to. My warmest salutations
go to Pascal who worked on a case located in Limoilou
at the end of this afternoon! Thanks Pascal if you read
this! The replacement box has the classic "box inside a
box" design with a "side" for each party: Bell and me.

It won't be very difficult to filter the voice circuit but
i was told by two Bell workers that the protector/POTS
splitter with an ADSL outlet was a rare item in Quebec
city! Anyway, i measured 47 dB of Local/DownStream
Attenuation and 26 dB of Remote/UpStream Attenuation,
the SNR Margin for Local/DownStream was 17.5 dB near
18 h and 7 dB for Remote/UpStream. The "Maximum
Attainable" was 5876 Kbps so a thumb-rule calculation
allows me to estimate the final DownStream Profile speed
to be 4032 Kbps if nothing improves significantly - which
is why i'm curious about the 4032/512 Kbps FastPath
profile if it exists at all... That's all the information i coud
gather in the middle of a very busy day, i'll update later.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,20739939 Fri, 04 Jul 2008 00:27:33 EDT
