I had mentioned in one of my posts that I was having a lot of broadband disconnection problems. I solved this issue and would like to share my experience with all of you. Keep the following points in mind to get good connectivity and SNR margins:-
[*]The broadband/telephone line that comes to your house, should have minimal joints and preferably should be an external wire(signals in an internal wire are affected by electrical signals from other wires).
[*]This line should go in the
ADSL splitter and the ADSL output line should go directly to the modem/
router.
[*]If the above two points are taken care of, under normal circumstances you will get a stable connection, if the connection is unstable there is a problem from the telephone exchange/server.
[*]Now connect the Phone output line of the ADSL splitter to the telephone connections in your house.
[*]If after connecting the phones(including cordless phones), you see your Broadband connection getting disconnected this means that there is some 'reverse signal' or defective telephone wiring which is adversely affecting the Broadband signals. In this case the "trick' lies in putting more than one ADSL splitter(microfilter) in the telephone line. This can be done in two ways:-
[*]Install an ADSL splitter before every telephone. ADSL splitters don't cost much(Rs. 40 a piece).
[*]Install an ADSL splitter to the telephone output line of the first ADSL splitter and the output of this second ADSL splitter is the line which you use to connect your home telephone lines(I tried this method and it worked well fro me). :thumbsup:

[*]Also check the telephone jacks and all joints for dust/humidity etc., remember the ADSL signals are very weak so any minor hinderance would cause them to snap. Specially the people using 2 MBPS lines(when we had 256 kpbs connections these problems never surfaced).
[*]Happy surfing.
