MTNL Mumbai Increased Upload Speeds for few Plans

[x720]

Adsl can't give more than 2mbps upload.

@kickass can chime in on the worthiness of vdsl. @d5aqoëp had some issues with it, iirc.

@d5aqoëp & @socrates @x720 if you remember you guys had helped me with the VDSL with SOTL query on my same adsl modem. you think now is the time to get a vdsl modem? or the current adsl modem should suffice for 5mbps upload? as Im still getting 2mbps upload only. (pardon the noobness, just need your expert advice) Thanks in advance

Till MTNL does not dump their Prabhadevi's New Alcatel server, the problems will remain.

Thanks again folks for such a prompt reply,

@x720 so that means if I buy a vdsl modem then should I be worrying about switching to any port like SOTL?

@d5aqoëp do I still buy the ZyXEL modem/router, or continue with the currnet Belkin adsl modem/router with 2 mbps upload limit until mtnl plan change their server as mentioned by you?

seems a little more confusin now :-(

Would be grateful if anyone here can help me ...Starting to think that this was a mistake....

@Anup Iyer You have a line problem, If SNR goes below 10 then you will always have DC. You also have CRC which confirms a line problem

@d5aqoëp & @socrates @x720 A big Thanks to all of you for assisting all along.
I finally went all along and bought myself VDSL Modem/Router & I thought to Share my Experience.
Before getting the VDSL modem, I was getting speed 8 to 8.5Mbps Down and 2 mbps Up.

I went to the Exchange and met the DM to request a MTNL modem and to discuss the speed limit issue.

He said he have to assign me a VLAN and then will help me configure the modem but I need to get my Own Modem Router First.

So I bought one from Digisol Smarlink Click Here per my knowledge there is ZyXEL ( costing around 5k approx & TP-Link around 12k approx)

And the above one I got for 4K INR, so thought of taking the risk as the Zyxel was not available at the time of my purchase.

Today Got the router configured with the MTNL official's assistant and touch wood all is fine now. atleast Im getting proper speeds for what Im paying for.

I dont know exactly how to translate the Line stats but here I have posted for your reference and advise / comments if any.

Again a BIG Thanks you to all for the is amazing place to discuss and help.
