Hi TerTech,
I have a suggestion to make relatively to eventual
future revisions of 'DSL_StatScope'. Lets suppose
the average CRC rate is roughly predictible already:
%20.GIF)
In this example, the final count was an evaluation
resulting from the "filtered" numbers making up the
area under the curve instead of the whole record.
If the curve's amplitude amounts to a certain value
during the normal periods then it's suitable to limit
burts after reaching some threhold. Perhaps if you
could add a feature that chops the upper part of
extreme bursts (aberrations) this would help to get
well focused curves which will easily become blurred
because the dots are being scattered otherwise...

Judging from a few recent posts this thread needs to resurface towards the top!
...amd why not also read a bit of this:

I found a bug in DSL_Statscope. If the ST516 uses firmware 6.1.0.5, the program will indicate that every sample contains a modem disconnect. If you turn on "Show disconnects" it will create a whole graph full of them.
I found this out because I'm back to using 6.1.0.5 firmware in order to tweak my modem connection. I'm getting disconnects every few minutes unless I set the SNRM to MAX. This lowers the speed to 1 MBps then I only get 2 or 3 disconnects a day.
In case anybody besides bicephale is using this tool, here's the fixed version. |

| Hi TerTech,
I'm so glad you've paid us a visit, it's even more rejoycing
to find that you're releasing 'DSL_StatScope v1.2' today!
Thanks for lurking around, have a good evening/night sir!

Hi TerTech,
It may take a while until you see this but i though it would
be better to post my findings to your attention. The result
isn't what i was expecting but i must confess i've played a
lot with your numbers... In any case, i'd wish to bring your
attention on the date stamp of March 26 3:00:19 (3:01:29)
and that of March 27 23:00:29 (23:01:39): you'll recognize
a pattern in the date/time bug i've found, i presume...
Among the few things i've done, i tried to reject the effect
of disconnections on the SNR Margin curves in order to get
a better idea of what these are like... Clipping has been my
favourite trick for some time now so it was applied here too
as an attempt to ignore "sparkles" which would contaminate
the curves with single events otherwise. Last but not least,
i used a logarithmic function in some creative way and was
so pleased with this i finally included that element for you to
consider as a potential addition in case of future upgrades:
it allowed me to fit low and high value patterns together on
a very same graphic (there were so much more FEC errors
than the CRC/HEC ones i just couldn't use the same scale).
Looking at the graphic i notice your line was relatively OKay
between 1h30 - 4h00, 10h00 - 15h00 and 22h00 - 23h30... |

Hummm...
The more i look at them the more similitudes i recognize and
one puzzles me a bit: what's going on from 15h15 to 17h?!...

Hi SpeedTouch owners,
This is to remind us all that 'DSL_StatScope v1.2'
was released a while ago, it's available right here:
'DSL_StatScope v1.2'
Also, lets point out one of it's most useful feature
is its capacity to load ("Play-Back") a log-file so it
implies that one can post his record as a .ZIP file
for others to scrutinize dynamically, avoiding the
difficulties due to graphic capturing & encoding...
Put briefly, we can rescale and zoom onto details
not captured by a graphic sample!

does this software work with other modems (eg:TP-LINK TD-8816)? |

| Hi,
Sorry but TerTech only lurks around occasionally as
he "retired" (so he wrote himself)... 'DSL_StatScope'
was created specifically for Thomson's SpeedTouch
5x6 series because the other 3rd-party applications
encountered some FirmWare limitations, as i recall.
You might be able to evaluate TerTech's utility with
this proxy in between if you happen to own a 2Wire:
»proxy2wire progress (2wire to DMT proxy)
»proxy2wire beta released!
The source-code for v1.0 is available to an eventual
developper who would intend to adapt this software
to other brands/models, perhaps with some luck one
will be lucky to get the latest v1.2 from TerTech the
next time he passes by... |
