Got my line activated today! Spent about 30 mins sorting out the router which reported full connectivity but DNS wasn't resolving. I reset it and used the default DNS servers instead of the ones sent to me and things are working fine now!

Stats from the router plugged into the test socket:

Uptime: 0 days, 0:06:29
DSL Type: G.992.5 annex A
Bandwidth (Up/Down) [kbps/kbps]: 1,217 / 15,943
Data Transferred (Sent/Received) [kB/kB]: 0.00 / 0.00
Output Power (Up/Down) [dBm]: 12.0 / 18.0
Line Attenuation (Up/Down) [dB]: 12.0 / 25.5
SN Margin (Up/Down) [dB]: 7.0 / 6.0
Vendor ID (Local/Remote): TMMB / BDCM
Loss of Framing (Local/Remote): 0 / 0
Loss of Signal (Local/Remote): 0 / 0
Loss of Power (Local/Remote): 0 / 0
Loss of Link (Remote): 0
Error Seconds (Local/Remote): 0 / 0
FEC Errors (Up/Down): 0 / 952
CRC Errors (Up/Down): 0 / 0
HEC Errors (Up/Down): 476 / 0

Should I be worried about the errors? I game alot so was thinking about enabling fastpath and moving to Annex M, but will I see much improvement with that Line Attenuation?

line attenuation doesn't really change, as that's line loss. Meaning how far you are from the exchange.

Those errors are very low, but you have not been connected very long.

If you can post back to us when you have 8+ hours of uptime we can advise you further Smile

Hey guys, got an update:

Uptime: 0 days, 23:50:29
DSL Type: G.992.5 annex A
Bandwidth (Up/Down) [kbps/kbps]: 1,217 / 15,860
Data Transferred (Sent/Received) [kB/kB]: 0.00 / 0.00
Output Power (Up/Down) [dBm]: 12.0 / 18.5
Line Attenuation (Up/Down) [dB]: 12.0 / 25.5
SN Margin (Up/Down) [dB]: 7.0 / 6.0
Vendor ID (Local/Remote): TMMB / BDCM
Loss of Framing (Local/Remote): 0 / 0
Loss of Signal (Local/Remote): 0 / 0
Loss of Power (Local/Remote): 0 / 0
Loss of Link (Remote): 0
Error Seconds (Local/Remote): 8 / 0
FEC Errors (Up/Down): 2 / 1,903,026
CRC Errors (Up/Down): 2 / 610
HEC Errors (Up/Down): 483 / 529

Should I bother with fastpath, or just go ahead and be thankful for what I've already got (which I am!) ?

Go for it. If it ends up being unstable then you can always go back to interleaved. Just raise a ticket and ask for a 6dB fastpath profile. Smile

Loss of Signal (Local/Remote): 1 / 0

Can you account for that? Keep an eye on the Loss Of stats - if they start creeping up then it would seem your line wouldn't suit fastpath.

Other than that, your speed is about right for your attenuation. (Can be better with a different router, like a Netgear DG834GT).

Updated stats:

Uptime: 0 days, 12:03:25
DSL Type: G.992.5 annex A
Bandwidth (Up/Down) [kbps/kbps]: 1,217 / 16,763
Data Transferred (Sent/Received) [kB/kB]: 0.00 / 0.00
Output Power (Up/Down) [dBm]: 12.0 / 18.5
Line Attenuation (Up/Down) [dB]: 12.0 / 25.5
SN Margin (Up/Down) [dB]: 7.0 / 6.5
Vendor ID (Local/Remote): TMMB / BDCM
Loss of Framing (Local/Remote): 12 / 0
Loss of Signal (Local/Remote): 1 / 0
Loss of Power (Local/Remote): 0 / 0
Loss of Link (Remote): 0
Error Seconds (Local/Remote): 10 / 0
FEC Errors (Up/Down): 12 / 0
CRC Errors (Up/Down): 12 / 2,651
HEC Errors (Up/Down): 4 / 2,214

Is it possible the Loss of Signal occurred when I was moved to a fastpath connection? And should I worry about any loss of framing errors?

The "Loss Of" errors haven't changed in over 10 hours so I wouldn't worry.
