My line was activated last thursday. I was supposed to be connected to 1mbit (adsl - no cable available) but I have been put on 512kbit. What I want to know - is my line good enough for 1mbit?
I have been logging the connection stats as regularly as possible and get the following: Connection Speed up 576 kbps down 288 kbps
Downstream
Attenuation - always 48db
SNR margin - fluctuating between 28 and 16db
Upstream
Attenuation - always 15.5db
SNR margin - between 25 and 29db
I understand downstream attenuation should be as low as poss - 44-60db for 1mbit but what is the guidance for downstream snr margin?
If my snr margin is borderline should I ring my isp (aol) and try to get connected at 1mbit anyway?
