MTNL Broadband: 8mbps Plans

[evilpoodle]

With such an SNR, if your line is stable at this speed, just leave it alone, just so that things don't get worse.

Yep, thanks. Is there any merit in asking them to lower the down rate to about 6000? Will that boost SNR or lower attenuation? Sorry if this is all elementary - it's all new to me.

check download speed on direct downloads...... like from Microsoft.... or download drivers from AMD/NVIDIA

It got worse. And I thought there was hope. I might call line man, but looks like this is gonna be a tough one to fix.

I tried Auto, ADSL2 and G.DMT and it hasnt budged. You can see the pre-8mbps numbers on previous post. Is this typical? Or was my connect/ line S/N-Attn not goo enough before this change.

Looks like MTNL has increased the quota on all their plans. Airtel pressure maybe? The 28GB limit has been increased to 40 GB, and the 50 GB is up to 60 GB now!

5 posts in a row combo breaker.

Increasing price by 200-400 Rupees and giving 5-10 GB extra is not a good move.

I don't see 5 posts - page wasn't responding. Did the mod remove it? If so, thanks.

Hi guys,
I had 8mbps plan earlier but was having a lot of issues with the port thingie, went to 4mbps plan & things got better but now thinking f going back to 8mbps connection, will my line stats be good enough for 8mbps? these line stats was taken when i had the 8mbps connection.

SNR MARGIN DOWNSTREAM- 13.8
UPSTREAM- 11.9
LINE ATTENUATION DOWNSTREAM 26.5
UPSTREAM 15.8

Let me know guys.

Thanks.

@insane79
Get line checked.... or relay the wire from router to ground floor junction box..... mostly that is the culprit....

My Line Atte downstream is higher than yours at 27dB...... but still I have 24dB SNR downstream..... so u can improve your SNR by fixing your line..... I hope those stats were on ADSL2+ Annex M.....

At 26dB Line atte....... u should be fine with 8Mbps if you can improve your SNR...... but as far as port problems...... that depends on the port your on....

Thanks for the info, i changed my plan yesterday & they seem to change the plan fast, today afternoon everything is changed & even shows my plan info in login in setup, i m getting 6.9mbps speed on speedtest, haven't got a change to download & test for disconnection but by theory will my SNR downstream values keep up for 7mbps? could be i had a port issues last time around with this plan, hope its not the case again this time, fingers crossed.

Thanks.
