Different wires used from the wall to the router-modem.

Note, I'm in the basement on my laptop, the router-modem is on the top floor :huh:]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Activated-new-DSL-works-great-though-a-few-inquiries-18678343 Sun, 15 Jul 2007 23:40:34 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Activated-new-DSL-works-great-though-a-few-inquiries-18677419 =)

I tried unplugging all the phones in the house, it didn't result in a faster speed. I moved the modem/router to another room, same results. I tried both wired and wireless, same speeds, weirdly enough wireless sometimes is faster.

I will see if I can borrow another modem, I'll get back once I do.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Activated-new-DSL-works-great-though-a-few-inquiries-18676543 Sun, 15 Jul 2007 17:29:20 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Activated-new-DSL-works-great-though-a-few-inquiries-18675910 could be any number of things:

bad phone cable
bad jack
bad modem
bad line
bad line card
distance

I'm going to ask my cousin(whos on Bell) who lives a few KMs away to borrow his modem. His speeds are pretty good, around 4500/800 if I recall, so hopefully his modem(he got it a few months ago) improves something?]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Activated-new-DSL-works-great-though-a-few-inquiries-18674977 Sun, 15 Jul 2007 11:23:26 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Activated-new-DSL-works-great-though-a-few-inquiries-18674373
hmmm looks like the line might be being choked out, I'd definitely give a call into the office as there is something going on here.

looks like you're on a 1728/640 that's over-provisioned...

Hmmmm, I'm trying to see if I can tinker around my modem.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Activated-new-DSL-works-great-though-a-few-inquiries-18673116 Sat, 14 Jul 2007 22:20:37 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Activated-new-DSL-works-great-though-a-few-inquiries-18672888 http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Activated-new-DSL-works-great-though-a-few-inquiries-18672888 Sat, 14 Jul 2007 21:35:52 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Activated-new-DSL-works-great-though-a-few-inquiries-18672761
And yea, stingers, remotes, or whatever they are called, it'd be great.

I recently made the switch to TSI, and it's been great, the CSR's been top notch, at almost half the cost. The DSL is still at 3mb, assuming I'm too far or something. Even if the speed stays at 3mb, I'm fine with that, I'm in no rush to download anything, it's just that sharing internet with 2-3 others can get really slow if one does anything that uses 30-50kb/sec like streaming video. I would be ecstatic if 5mb would be available however.

So my questions are:

1. Is it possible to get 5mb in my area anytime soon(I guess I'll PM someone at TS with my info after they respond)? After reading the forums a bit, it seems to me Bell can do some sort of lines or telephone boxes outdoors, etc. to possibly improve the DSL speeds? Can the good people at TekSavvy talk to Bell and see if its possible?

2. Is it my modem/router? I'm using the 2wire 2700HG router/modem. I was using a SpeedStream 5200 from Bell(had it for, 3-4 years but recently switched to the 2wire. The sticker with the name and specs is all faded on the 5200, the ink melted from the heat apparently. I haven't tried using it for a few months, but I found the 2wire to be 20-30kb faster then using the SpeedStream modem and my Netgear router. Should I try buying/renting a modem from TSI to see if I have better results?

Here's some info about my connection:
