No idea what people will do when we're all on FTTP. No power levels to look at so I presume it'll just be hourly speed tests.

Complain about the internet still being unreliable.

Have you seen the new Virgin Vivid billboards?

According to the ad, first came ADSL, then VDSL, then Fibre, then Vivid (with fibre optic). Woo. So apparently we should all be watching the lights in the cables.

There were cheers :hyper: when we went up to three upstreams and qam64 and there were tears when we went back to two and qam16 :bigcry:. I can remember making several posts with screen dumps myself as I went to 3 upstreams, then one was qam64, then I lost the qam64, then I went to two upstreams and then both went to qam64.

Anyone looking at their BQM graph at the time was experiencing the exact opposite emotions. Zig-zag-zig-zag-zig-zag..

It may have been you were on the SH2ac at the time as it did not get the new firmware, only the SH2 got the update and let it use 3 upstreams

That would be the reason.

Re: Qam 16 upstream

Never been anything else but version V1.01.11 on my SH2ac?

I think you'll find it's only VM customers who do it though.

I wonder why?:D:D:D

It really isn't - there are people who obsessively monitor their VDSL, too.

Without resorting to my notes, I hazily recall SH2AC was in Public Trials beta in June 2014 @ V1.01.06 but didn't get released till August with V1.01.09? V1.01.11 was Jan/Feb 2015?

SH2/VMDG485 was in public beta with V2.01.03 (Wifi Public sharing) in March2015 but actual WiFi Pilot not until Aug/Sept 2015 and subsequently regressed back to V1.01.29 in 4Q2015.
