Re: Please people...
said by Jerm  :This article is also misleading, do not expect Verizon or any telco to be able to set your line to fastpath at the same time you order it! SBC/Ameritech used to have interleaving on by default but switched to fastpath as the default at the beginning of September 2000, about the same time they implemented line sharing. They don't go to interleaving unless it's a last resort, which doesn't happen very often. I've got two 6016/608 lines at different locations running just fine on fastpath.
Not sure what Verizon's problem is. |

Thanks for the info, I would have no qualms moving to SBC territory in that case. That is a much better policy than Qwest's. I believe that ILEC's should take it on a case-by-case basis or if interleaving is their default, they should offer an option to disable it upon request. It's not like the freaking line has to be rewired or five tech support employees and a goat must be sacrificed to the gods of copper. Someone with a device can do it remotely. Ultimately it would be really awesome if the data path setting was left up to the end user (via a telnet to the modem maybe?), but set to default to interleaving so we could avoid this issue altogether.... in my dreams, I know. |

Bellsouth is the same. All circuits are on Fast path unless it requires the "noise profile" AKA Interleaved. |
