<0> hmm
<0> im using windws multimedia verison
<0> Current Downstream 104.07 KB/s| Current Upstream 1.78 KB/s
<1> hello
<1> is anyone around? i want to ask a couple of questions..?
<0> sure
<1> :) thanks
<1> got a dsl 384kbps
<1> and although it connects at this speed, i can't d/l with more than 25-28kb/sec
<0> hmm
<1> i am wondering is there any way to know whether its an isp problem or a problem in my housing?
<0> 384kbps is 40ish KB/sec
<0> where are you located?
<1> greece
<0> do you know if your modem uses PPPoE or what/
<1> i noticed these 'noise margin' and 'attenuation' options in db
<1> ppp over atm..
<0> what are your speeds provisioned at
<0> is it right at 384 or is it over 384?
<1> what do you mean?
<0> there is something like up to 10% overhead with PPPoE/PPPoA
<0> not as bad on pppoa though
<1> it's connected at exactly 384.0kbps
<0> can you see what your provisioned speeds are in the modem?
<0> ah thats probably your problem
<1> meaning?
<0> the overhead
<0> meaning you can't really do anything
<1> how do i check/correct this?
<0> you should talk to Night though, he knows a lot more about DSL
<1> i don't know if provisioned speed is what i read in the connection status..?
<0> whenever hes around he's in here
<0> yeah, thats your provisioned speed
<1> hm..
<0> :-/
<1> i have noise margin up/down: +32db/+39.1db
<1> and attenuation +20/+40.5
<0> i think thats good
<1> what do these show?
<0> higher the noise margin the better
<1> condition of the line?
<0> AFAIK
<1> attenuation?
<0> i forgot about attenuation, but those show you how well your lines are
<0> in your house AND the lines between your house and the dslam
<1> hm, that's very informative
<1> so i guess the line is ok
<1> and prolly it's an isp prob?
<0> i think it may be overhead from PPPoA
<1> can u tell me the little you might know on this overhead?
<0> I know in the US, with verizon, they give you 10 or more percent over the advertised rates (i think 1.5mbit was provisioned at 1.7mbit) and when I had it i got 1500 on the nose
<0> so there def. is overhead
<0> one second
<1> hey night, looks like you are the one to help me out :D
<0> yea
<0> 10-15% overhead on PPPoA
<1> ...if you have some time to spend
<0> is your MTU set correctly?
<1> mtu set? :/
<0> hmmm
<1> i installed it via cd, all options should be fine, but how can i check?
<0> do you have a router?
<1> no, just a modem
<0> hmm
<0> then you are prob ably using a MTU of 1500
<2> What's the issue?
<0> you want 1492 for MTU i think
<0> Night, he's only getting 20-30 KB/sec on his 384kbit dsl line
<1> night, i am not getting full speed on my dsl line
<0> provisioned at 384k
<1> my main concern is if my housing and line is ok, so that i can call and swear the isp
<2> With those margins the line should be fine.
<1> i have noise margin up/down: 31/39.1db
<1> attenuation 20/40
<2> You should be able to get a much faster plan.
<2> Anyway...
<1> bits per frame: 263/2133
<2> Odd speeds there.
<0> he's in greece
<2> Definitely on the slow side.
<1> odd in what way?
<0> i think it could be overhead and/or MTU set incorrectly
<1> how can i be sure if its my house's line?
<0> your line is fine
<0> you might need some tweaking, such as changing your mtu
<2> Overhead would not be that much.
<1> where do i set mtu?
<1> yeah, but tweaking wouldnt give me double what i am getting atm
<0> you won't get double anyway
<1> night, what would you think could be wrong?
<1> i have already contacted the isp but here in greece they are jerks and dont think they will help at all
<3> filters
<3> line filters on the phone poles
<1> please tell me what i could look at
<0> hm
<1> oggy... you mean out in the street?
<0> check your mtu one sec
<3> yes
<1> where is it baflap?
<0> one sec
<1> Oggy can't i verify if that is wrong via info provided by my connection status?
<0> use a prog
<2> http://www.screenhead.com/funny/the-norwegian-blue/more-frogger-than-frogger-153436.php
<0> dr tcp
<0> http://www.dslreports.com/front/drtcp.html
<0> check your MTU in there
<1> hold on
<1> oggy, what about what i asked?
<1> can't i verify if that is wrong via info provided by my connection status?
<0> there is nothign wrong with your signal
<3> ask Night he can give you more info
<0> basically what oggy is saying, do you have your phone filters on all your phones?
<1> ok then baflap
<0> which would probably cause signal issues, but your signals are good so you should be good
<1> atm my houses lines are upside down
<0> hehe
<1> a tractor went by and tore everything apart

<1> now i only have one main phone line
<1> and i only connect modem/1 telephone
<0> do you have dsl filters on all your phones?
<1> i don't know about filters outside the house
<1> no, just on one
<1> but it's seperate from where the modem connects.. :/
<1> just a phone line -> splits in 2 -> one part connects to the modem, other part connects to dsl filter and phone
<1> baflap, this dr tcp doesnt recognise my modem :/
<0> not
<0> inside
<0> err outside
<0> filters INSIDE
<0> on everything hooked to a phone line besides the modem
<0> but you have a splitter for itr so you're fine
<0> dr tcp wont do anytrhing to your modem
<0> it reads your windows TCP/IP settings
<0> is the MTU box blank?
<1> doesnt recognise anything else than loopback adapter in the adapter settings
<1> well, everything is blank
<1> :D
<0> oh
<0> your modem is hooked up on USB
<1> yeah
<0> oh
<0> dunno then, sorry
<1> dunno if it helps in bandwidth consuming devices i get a 'system reserved=26% bandwidth used'
<1> night? oggy? any other suggestions?
<1> baflap isnt there any way to verify if i have line filters in the poles or not?
<1> now i am getting around 30k/sec
<1> grr
<1> i am almost desperate
