Yes, you can get 6mbps of speed! ADSL2+ (G.992.5) can actually support up to 24mbps -- if AT&T were willing to offer those speeds.
Last time I tried they did send a new modem.
I am trying it again. Ordered DSL lite, connected a SpeedTouch Home and will be upgrading to 3.0mbps, as soon as the original order is "completed." I should get a free 2wire gateway out of it.
I believe even the Westel 2200 supports ADSL2+ (but I'm not 100% sure), the 3347NWG certainly does. Although AT&T does not offer the faster speeds that ADSL2+ is capable of, they do use the technology and I have seen cases where the ADSL modem can not obtain full speed, but using an ADSL2+ modem does. You can check the "sync rate" (see here: »AT&T Southeast Forum FAQ ) and if you are not syncing at the full rate, try a modem you know is ADSL2+ capable. -- 09:F9:11:02:9D:74:E3:5B:D8:41:56:C5:63:56:88:C0 |
