ajb62787 Posted January 24, 2008 CID Share Posted January 24, 2008 Ok. I have been having problems since Sunday on my internet connection drops like a rock then after a few hours goes fast again then drops again. I had been experiencing my downloading as 225Kbps but my upload is stable at around 680Kbps all the time. Here is my stats now ::::::::::::::::::::::::.. Download Stats ..:::::::::::::::::::::::: Download Connection is:: 2757 Kbps about 2.8 Mbps (tested with 2992 kB) Download Speed is:: 337 kB/s Tested From:: https://testmy.net/ (Main) Test Time:: 2008/01/23 - 10:19pm Bottom Line:: 48X faster than 56K 1MB Download in 3.04 sec Tested from a 2992 kB file and took 8.89 seconds to complete Download Diagnosis:: May need help : running at only 46.74 % of your hosts average (verizon.net) D-Validation Link:: https://testmy.net/stats/id-AN5HPYEV6 User Agent:: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.1; SV1) ::::::::::::::::::::::::..

Maximum signal loss recommendation is usually about 60dB. The lower the dB the better for this measurement. 20dB and below is outstanding 20dB-30dB is excellent 30dB-40dB is very good 40dB-50dB is good 50dB-60dB is poor and may experience connectivity issues 60dB or above is bad and will experience connectivity issues THU JAN 24 04:38:42 2008 Uploading Margin: 10.0 dB Downloading Margin: 12.0 dB SN Margin (AKA Signal to Noise Margin or Signal to Noise Ratio) Relative strength of the DSL signal to Noise ratio. 6dB is the lowest dB manufactures specify for modem to be able to synch. In some instances interleaving can help raise the noise margin to an acceptable level. The higher the number the better for this measurement. 6dB or below is bad and will experience no synch or intermittent synch problems 7dB-10dB is fair but does not leave much room for variances in conditions 11dB-20dB is good with no synch problems 20dB-28dB is excellent 29dB or above is outstanding THU JAN 24 04:38:42 2008 Uploading Tx Power: 11.9 dB Downloading Tx Power: 18.8 dB TX Power How much power modem (upstream) or DSLAM (downstream) is using. Maximum recommended is about 15dB. The lower the power the better for this measurement. When my download rises my upload sinks. I have finally been told after years and years of kind customer service from Verizon that my line for the DSL has been bad and by their readings its been bad for years and no one told me about this till now. The representative have arranged me to schedule a technican to come out and install a new telephone line from outside in so that their is no interferance with anything. I have readings that no DSL customer should have on their line and by their system it is 2-6 times as much interference than what a typical DSL customer should have. Verizon and myself have been going through rough times but eventually they have sticked to their side of the offer and have been willing enough to fix any problems I have experience. I had scheduled a tech to come out friday morning and once the job is finished, I will be having speeds between 4 and 4.5Mbps download and 850Kbps upload although the advertised speed suppose to be only 3Mbps download and 768Kbps upload. From what the representative said, I am only receiving 64% of my download speed and 97% of my upload meaning my upload is fine (when it gets fixed and gets its head out of its *** LOL) but figuring 64% is 2.8Mpbs so once the job is finished, I will be at the speed noted above. I happened to just noticed that if I go to Verizon's Speed Test site, it is giving me 675Kbps upload which seems weird by on here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
derek22x Posted January 28, 2008 CID Share Posted January 28, 2008 What happened to your connection now? Is it fixed? Better switch to AT&T Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
