Re: My DSL Profile
As long as it doesn't dip down below 8, you should be alright. I'd still spring for the whole house splitter though, as it may help stabilize things by a couple more db's. |

Springhill, LA | I talked to a tech from Centurytel and he said he'd come put in a whole-house splitter for me. For the mean time, I "rigged" it by splitting the rest of the house from the dsl signal using a regular splitter and the snr margin went up to 9.5. |

| Well, it's still acting goofy. Let's try 6.
ADSL Line State: Up
ADSL Startup Attempts: 2
ADSL Modulation: DMT
Datapump Version: DSP 4.2.1.0, HAL 4.2.1.0
Downstream Upstream
---------- ----------

Why do you suppose the downstream snr went down so much? It was at 10db when I was on 10 meg... |

Crockett, TX | If it's where you can, try testing at the NID (phone interface) outside by running a long cord from the test jack in the interface, to your modem. Then post the stats here again. |

1 edit | The stats I posted above were done with a homerun from the NID. The rest of the house is disconnected. |

Crockett, TX | If that's the case, then 6 may be your better bet for stability. |
