Re: SpeedTouch 516 Tweaking :)
Hi,
I'd like to see how 3Com USR-9108 tweaking would perform
in this case (it's supported by 'DMT v8.x', according to
ggpr) but you have a "locked" SS5200 instead. Well, the
Bell MoDems will operate as "dumb" units by default if i
am not mistaking. Install it in front of a router of use
the Windows MiniWAN adapter to manage your PPPoE session
externally and the MoDem should work in "bridge" mode...
If that works (i'm no SpeedStream owner myself) you must
find out what HardWare version you've got before anything
else. Once that is done the magic word will be "unlock"
but those discussions are most probably required to occur
in the background (privately). As for Spectral Shaping,
the only thing that might be close enough is a ferrite
choke installed on the MoDem's phone/WAN input. With a
DownStream band this tiny my bet is that you have to use
a fairly large toroid to be able to wrap as much as tenty
some turns of RJ-45 phone cable around it. You won't be
able to affect the UpStream band but this may eliminate
a few weak DownStream bins near A.M. interfering signals.
Euh...
Cross you fingers that an SS5200 with some RF choking does
improve your RCO figures! In absence of real Spectral
Shaping festures that's all i can think of right now.
