Yeah I know its very possible for longer lines to over perform, but because also lines under perform its best to assume they cancel each other out.

Hmm he got a very low attenuation, how sure is it that the line is 4.1km with a 24 attenuation. 20mbit is impossible at 4km no matter how good the noise.
I suggested it was at least 1.4km and probably around 1.7, said nothing about 4.1? Was referring to another guy receiving 8Mbit at around that range.

That's the key really. Unbiased opinions. All too rare these days though
