Crazy Naru Posted August 5, 2005 CID Share Posted August 5, 2005 you may have a phone line problem. Is there a long line from the wall to the modem? Try to shorted the distance and make sure you have all filters installed. If all this fails call them up. Since you have your own line and not sharing line cable internet you should get almost 1.5Mbps Down. Is your upload close to what they advertise?

endofthebeggining Posted August 5, 2005 CID Share Posted August 5, 2005 There's a chance that verizon put you under a profile of 786 instread of 1500 because you live too far away. A profile of 1500 might have not be stable enough for your area. I'm actually not sure if verizon does this, but I'm sure SBC does. Maybe you should call and ask.

FinalKM Posted August 5, 2005 Author CID Share Posted August 5, 2005 to the poster endofthebegginin: This message is in response to your email dated Aug 4, 2005. You inquired about what your current speeds on your Verizon DSL are. I will be happy to assist you. Currently, you are receiving a maximum of 1.5Mbps downstream and a maximum of 384Kbps upstream. so im pretty sure im getting 1.5Mb..unless he lied..haha..

endofthebeggining Posted August 5, 2005 CID Share Posted August 5, 2005 can your modem show line stats? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FinalKM Posted August 5, 2005 Author CID Share Posted August 5, 2005 i'm not sure if it can, im currently using a westell 327W versalink if that helps Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
endofthebeggining Posted August 5, 2005 CID Share Posted August 5, 2005 Check the back of the router and see if there's something that says "advanced modem configuration"(or something like that). After that there might be an address like http://192.168.0.1 (just an example) Tell me if does. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FinalKM Posted August 5, 2005 Author CID Share Posted August 5, 2005 if your talking how to get into the settings, then mine is 192.168.1.1./ to go into the modem settings.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
endofthebeggining Posted August 5, 2005 CID Share Posted August 5, 2005 Yeah, go to the modem settings.. Does it look anything like this? http://www.broadbandreports.com/faq/7036 If it does, go up to the step 5 and tell me the dsl rate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FinalKM Posted August 5, 2005 Author CID Share Posted August 5, 2005 i think its Connection Rate (Down/Up): 896 KBits/Sec by 416 KBits/Sec Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
endofthebeggining Posted August 5, 2005 CID Share Posted August 5, 2005 It looks like your sync rate isn't up to the full 1500. Like I said before, if you live too far away from the CO, verizon won't give the full 1500 because it will cause problems. That guy didn't lie to you because he said up to 1500 which includes 896. You'll have to call verizon and talk to a tech to see if it's possible to bump up your sync rate. You're getting a decent speed right now since your dsl rate is only 869.

endofthebeggining Posted August 5, 2005 CID Share Posted August 5, 2005 No problem. I had a similar problem before just a week ago. I thought I was under sbc's 1.5 package but it turned out I was only getting 384. I talked to a tech and he manage to bump the sync rate to 1.5. If you're lucky, a tech will be able to do the same.

ajb62787 Posted August 5, 2005 CID Share Posted August 5, 2005 That looks more like an overclocked 768K DSL than 1.5M . My modem is the same way that it can show it more than 400Kbps higher than my advertised speed . So I have to say it can be... 1) Spyware , Adware , or viruses or 2) Verizon basically lied and said you got the 1.5 but you got the 768 As minus well, how far you live from your CO in feet? My DSL Connect Rate (Down/Up) 3360 KBits/Sec by 800 KBits/Sec Advertised DSL Speed (Down/Up) 3000 KBits/Sec by 768 Kbits/Sec Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FinalKM Posted August 5, 2005 Author CID Share Posted August 5, 2005 i dont know how far i live from my CO..how do i find out? just call them or email them and ask? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
endofthebeggining Posted August 5, 2005 CID Share Posted August 5, 2005 i dont know how far i live from my CO..how do i find out? just call them or email them and ask? You could call verizon and ask someone to perform a line test and he could give you a distance estimate. You could also check at http://www.broadbandreports.com/prequal/distance . Usually the distance verizon gives is more accurate than that test. 2) Verizon basically lied and said you got the 1.5 but you got the 768 I wouldn't say that verizon lied because it's up to 1.5 which could mean anything below 1.5.
