Yeah, that's the fastest your 2Wire thinks it can do on your line.
If your line is a quiet one (no DSL frequency noises), it should be able to handle full 3008 speeds. ... just barely. When the modem syncs at a speed, it is really using an additional portion of the maxrate to maintain stability by bit load swapping. That extra reserve it needs to give you uninterrupted sync is about 10% of the sync speed, so figure you need an absolute minimum maxrate of 3300. You won't have a lot of spare maxrate margin above that and you can never have too much spare maxrate margin. 
How long has it been since your Pro speed upgrade started? |
