Yes RX7, you get what you are provisioned for. I was provisioned for 640 and I should have had 1.5 meg. That was taken care of by resetting my values. Of course the Qwest help desk could have been lying about what he was doing, but in any event, I now work the way I should.

if I remembe rright some dslams (been too long) sometimes get locked on a specific train rate, rebooting the port sometimes resolvs this.
but again it has been too long so I don't remember as much.
but that would be affecting the dslam.
train speeds is all between the dslam, and the modem.
only other thing I could think of was the provisioned rate. but I doubt that was it.
but it isn't as the guy said where it was based upon his account.
his house is wired into a specific port on that dslam. the dslam doesn't care what his username and password is.
you can establish a connection without a username and password and get your full provisioned rate (as long as the SNR is high enough and your not getting errors on the line)
the username comes far later so that username situation shouldn't be affecting his download speeds or connection rates |
