Re: [DSL] Embarq Modems

1) What is the make and model of the modem you have?
2) Can you post statistics from the modem that shows SNR, allowed speed, etc.?
3) Try a speed test from »helpme.att.net/dsl/speedtest/ and pick the Dallas site. The sites you picked were all too far away to be reliable.
1.Zyxel EQ660R

2. Not sure EXACTLY what you need to know but I can try and post anything you need. Heres some stuff I found from modem diagnostics.
Upstream Noise Margin
noise margin upstream: 1 db
output power downstream: 20 db
attenuation upstream: 31 db

Downstream Noise Margin
noise margin downstream: 24 db
output power upstream: 12 db
attenuation downstream: 49 db

3. I ran the speed test. The little arrow points to 128K. We are supposed to get 512K but I know we can because we are so far out of town.

Your line looks like it can handle at least the 1.5 Mbps service. 3.0 Mbps would be pushing it, but 1.5 Mbps should be stable.

• For 3 Mbps DSL the Downstream Attenuation must be under 48 dB with 10 dB SNR or better.

• For 6 Mbps DSL the Downstream Attenuation must be under 38 dB with 10-12 dB SNR or better.

What is missing is your Sync Rates.

There will the WAN Stats that show Upstream and Downstream Sync Rates in Kbps, possibly in a pop up window after clicking a button for WAN Statistics.

Right now you are on the 0.5 Mbps Service aka 571/287 Sync Rate that should usually show 512/256 speed test results.

I would call in and asked to be placed on the 1.5 Mbps service and see what the Downstream SNR stabilizes at. The Attenuation should remain the same as it is a measurement of the lines electrical distance.
