those are almost the same as my stats, my noise is between 6 - 8 and attenuation 44, i get 9215 dl and 1048 dl, the ul is much much better but dl was only about 1000 kb/s better, not a great deal faster.

Bob your stats are almost identical to mine, i only get 8Mb sync on ADSL2.

Output Power (Up/Down) [dBm]:   12.0 / 20.0
Line Attenuation (Up/Down) [dB]:   32.5 / 46.5
SN Margin (Up/Down) [dB]:   8.0 / 3.0

if only My SNR was 6 i maybe able to squeeze an extra mb or two out of the connection Sad

 my stats are 

   Connection Speed 12327 kbps 1023 kbps
Line Attenuation 36.0 db 18.0 db
Noise Margin 5.6 db 12.4 db

karoo say for  my postcode  it is 10 mb but i  get  12 meg solid
 
with my  netgear DG834Gv4 i can set within( router stats)  to target 1 sn  it puts me  up to 15 meg with the v4  and still solid at off peek times  ,peek times its 14 meg
the netgear DG834Gv3 that karoo gave me dropped all the time at 12 meg so they put me on 11 meg !  then i got a v4
 but at the end off the day you pay for up to 24 meg so just e mail them if you think  your line could  hold more speed! i got them to set mine at 15 meg and let my v4 let me set my speed with router stats !

e mail dont ring the help desk you get better service not talked down to,they just change your speed and tell you to let them know if you have problems!

If your attenuation down is 46 .5 looking at that your sn Margin down is 3 so if you was put on 6 down it would be slower!  but if your Attenuation down  is 32  you shoul get  faster then me !

just thought i should point out that theres no such thing as an "upgrade" as far as karoo are concerned.

polished turd?

I'm on karoo poo, 29.99 a month + phone line (45) and i sync at 4 meg wiht adsl2.

i get shaped to 1 meg every night

tonight - 30 kb/s

now it's going 15.

8!

I get 3MB on my Max option 2, they reckon that for £29.99 per month I'd be 'better off' on 4MB... Yeah, right...
