Re: Upgraded to DSL Pro, only getting 2.0Mbps - 1.5 mi from CO

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?

We called to upgrade last Tuesday afternoon I think.

Fortunately the 1984 kbps I do get works fantastically. I can get about 1.7-1.8 Mbps through speed tests on the PC that's wired to the router. But another 1 Mbps sure would be nice!
