Update: Unfortunately, there's still the issue with random ES occurring with no CRC(s)...

Update: Unfortunately, there's still the issue with random ES occurring with no CRC(s)...

Already updated our engineers, lets see if they can sort this out,

[Grimers]

Yeah, no worries. I don't know how else the ES can occur without an error occurring. I just noticed that the US CRC counter was 1 above the ES counter and then they became the same, meaning that 1 ES occured without a CRC.

I got this router the other week to replace a Netgear D7000 and I'm very impressed with how much better it performs overall.

I looked at the stats page and one thing i was confused about was my attainable rate. On the upstream both rates are very similar but theirs a big difference on the downstream is there a way to improve this?

It's because your DS rate is banded at 49 Mb, most likely due to errors/drop outs.

[Wiggyg32]

Anyway to change that? My snr looks like I could squeak out a bit more bandwidth

[Grimers]

Unless you can encourage your ISP to issue a DLM reset, then no.

[Wiggyg32]

I've contacted BT so here's hoping!

[Grimers]

Good luck! It's great that ISPs have now been finally allowed the ability to request DLM resets themselves instead of having to send out a broadband engineer to do it. It should've been like this from the start.
