Thanks for the info panzer008. I have been trying that number all day like I got nothing to do but absolutely no luck.
Can you tell me how I should check my line stats? What setting on my router will show the line attenuation? I suspect mine won't be great as I am quite far from the exchange. I stay at Antop Hill in Wadala and Wadala Telephone Exchange must easily be more than 3 Kms away (assuming that laying cable is always longer than road distance and how the crow flies).
Speedguide.net appears to suggest that I can still get 8Mbps although he does say that this is a guess.

Click to expand...
Tht depends on the router....... maybe in tabs like 'Status'..... near values of SNR margin etc in dB(decibels)...
 
Woa, the system statistics say it all. My line attenuation downstream is 55.0 db so I fall in the below poverty line (poor) category. Man, wish the guys on that number pick up the phone once. Been trying like crazy to get through to them.
 
Oh so it will be diff to get 4Mbps on ur line...... but atleast u can try...... if it stay stable then its good......
ur at 55.0 db...... am at 12.0 db......
Conclusion is, I should be a happy man.... right? ...... wrong....
I want VDSL/FTTH since am so close to the xchg than u...... and all u want is stable speed on ADSL....... which I already hav.......
Real Conclusion: Man is greedy..... & doesnt care abt wht he has untill its gone.......
Anyways..... I hope they pickup the phone.....
 
Today the speeds are not only poor but a lot of packet loss......................I couldnt even touch my MMOG today.....hope this issue is solved by evening today itself.... :nonchalance:
