You are the first to confirm what looks like a way for Aztech modem users to identity IKNS DSLAM devices.
Thank you! |

 | And now explain IKNS... I've seen IKNS mentioned in the forum a couple of times but I don't know of any DSLAM called IKNS, although I only know Alcatel and Ericsson so I might be lost. |

 Acanac PNAcanac SupportPremium join:2008-10-27 Montreal, QC | It should be some abbreviation but the meaning is type (brand) of CO equipment used in DSL . I think, it is Canadian made  For some reason, it behaves different than classic ones and creates some support troubles, as you see. I am trying to find any official information on that as many people do. On Bell site I've seen discussions where they claim that all IKNS-reported problems were minor and fixable by other means (something like this). In two words:
The user is very close to CO but upstream is not synchronizing at full 800 and/or NM is shown very low, say 6dB. Some strange interleave modem reporting on AL1 profiles and/or higher pings.
Unfortunately, 70% of cases I open recently seem to be in this category.
Best regards. |
