not changed in speed...its still terrible

I usally use SAFECOM sagem SAMR 4114 ADSL router which has been no problem...
ive resoted to use the BT voyeger 210 ADSL router  modem that came when i 1st started the account . just to see if it would work cos its unsed and still brand new.
also because when i phoned BT tech support they couldent help me cos they cant give support for non BT products....so i changed just for arguments sake.....

regarless of router though ....my speed is crap.
they phones me this morning saying they will send somone to check my local exchange box for a fault ...but if they dont they said they will charge me for it....which i found to be quite unfair.....i have no ideaas to  why my connection would just drop like that!! ive dont nothing remotly wrong on my side of things.....i dunno.... im at loss.
i hope they find a fault cos i cant afford £150 for somone to just tell me its not there problem..

DeepVoice

you can ask an engineer out and they will only charge you
if it is YOUR fault, if they find a fault in their line when they come out to your house then u wont have to pay it

only if it is your fault will you pay
but i think those speeds have to do with the settings in their exchange
attenuation setting and stuff like that

[dlewis23]

call you tell us what rate your modem is connected at? it will say it some where in the modems control panel.

[FiberOptic]

Yep;

Have a read on this what I wrote up on another forum;

http://www.skyuser.co.uk/forum/other-useful-resources/6346-maxdsl.html

This MAXDSL is very confusing stuff!

Also when you do post what Dlewis23 asked, Make sure you include the; attenuation and noise margins aswell

Hi DeepVoice
first things first , Welcome to the forum , and it's great to have a new member from the UK. I guess we do / have suffered from ADSL from BT,
 , and the famous "UP TO 8Mb sevice "
the speed you have posted is unexceptable ,  as long as you are sure your computer is virus and trojan free , and meets the Min.spec for BB,
then it is not your problem , you are paying good money for a sevice you clearly are not getting , your ISP (name ? ) can run tests without the engineer call out ,  I had frequent discon's and and slow speeds , they got me to run repeated attemps to connect to the BT hub , the Tech engineer at my ISP (Pipex.com ) could read the BT log file, and comfirmed my problem , they raised the issue with BT , and within the week it was solved,
thanks "Just " for the link to the TMN speed test UK , I got 2Mb , I normaly get 1.9 Mb
to TMN USA (sever 1 ) so not that much differance ,
and also thanks to FibreOptic for his explanation on ADSL UK style, I will study that more  ,  I just did the BT, can you get ADSL test , LOL yes but only 1Mb
and a BT engineer may have to call , (line length  +age )  it's suprising the differance a year makes , coz thay told me a year ago I was good for 5Mb 

Pics of my Noise margin ect.   WTF is this good  ?????
and my test to the BT hub
note DeepVoice , the Min, speeds from BT , just to give you some food for thought ,




The speed test has completed on test server speedtester1.nat.bt.com for user 0208xxxxxxand you have downloaded a 1.7Mb file at a speed of

 2393 kilo bits per second (Kbps), your service bandwidth will have been quoted to you in kilo bits per second.

Your IP address isxxxxxxx your browser is reported as being Microsoft Internet Explorer 6.0 and is running on Windows XP.

BT would regard the speed ranges shown below as normal service:

  For 250Kbps End Users speeds between 50 - 250Kbps.
  For 500Kbps End Users speeds between 100 - 500Kbps.
  For 1000Kbps End Users speeds between 200 - 1000Kbps.
  For 2000Kbps End Users speeds between 400 - 2000Kbps.


You may now disconnect from the speed test account (click 'disconnect' in your internet connection window) and if you wish to regain normal access to the internet please re-connect to your ISP using your usual username and password.

Please note that test results may vary according to varying traffic in the network. If you continue to experience slower throughput when logged in to your ISP, this may be due to a slow internet site or high traffic levels beyond the BT Wholesale Network. Please report this situation to your ISP's helpdesk.

Roco would be best suited here. He has gone around with them a bit or 2. 

1st of all no money here okay, this is a free community we help each other cause we want to

But I need a new pair of shoes.

tommie

i need a new life, how much hey ?

[tommie gorman]

I guess it would depend on what type of life you wanted.  Some are a bit more expensive.

[DeepVoice]

ok thnx for all the help guys....my problem seemed t9o have been rectified....a engineer came round today checked the exchange and told me some home truths about how crap BT really is at service......he got dem to rebuild my connection (whatever that means)
either way im back to a reasonble speed .

thanks again roco you reassured me loads thnx again.

[FiberOptic]

Looks good! But still S#!te!

Best advice I think anyone will be able to give you is;

Move to an ADSL2+ ISP on LLU
or
Cable Broadband is the way forward!

[Roco]

Hi DeepVoice , glad it worked out ,397 Kbps is looking ok , wish I could see that speed (240Kbps is about mine on a good day  , on my "up to 8Mb service "
and thanks for the info on the cure, we all learn from this,
learn    I am the one at the back with the dunces hat on
