Cool tool, it needs Microsoft framework 2.0 installed but still cool.
Interesting when I took some line stats with it today. Considering I was at 3000/800 and fastpath just the night before, I'm guessing something is going on the CO

I don't know WTF bell is up to, but they seem to be reducing people's upload speeds. I've seen too many people reporting, 3008/512, 4032/512, and 5056/512 speeds when the upstream can handle 800 easily. I'd be pissed and complain, your upload can clearly handle 800k. -- GO LEAFS GO! |

| Hi Weales, Hi HiVolt,
It seems you checked your profile just in time for a surprize: speed was traded for InterLeave mode!
Perhaps you can ask for 4032/800 Kbps Fast then...

My SpeedTouch 546v6 uses a recent FirmWare so i've set OrbMT to the "Speedtouch V62 (Thomson)" option instead of just "Speedtouch (Thomson)". I suppose the later item is required under v6.1.0.5, HiVolt?

| Pissed is a very good description in how I feel. I had a rock solid connection one day and the next they totally switch everything by upping the download profile, downing the upload profile, switch me from Fastpath to interleave. I upload at full speed on the new upload profile but download at 30 k max 
Ticket is open but Execulink gave me a hassle just to open one... |

Is there any good reason to upgrade to the newer one? I have absolutely no issues whatsoever. Though I'm thinking if it may fix the strange SNMP issues i had before trying to get PRTG to work, it was reading zero values on all the graphs. Have you seen a changelog anywhere? -- GO LEAFS GO! |
