..............Upstream Downstream


CurrRate(kbps) ... 384 ..... 3072
MaxRate(kbps) ... 1264 .... 10944
NoiseMargin(dB)... 15.0 .... 23.0
Attenuation(dB)... 34.0.... 17.5
Power(dBm) ...0.1.... 8.1

I should be getting 'up to ' 8mb (line speed on eircom website shows Res&lineSpeed=6144)

No, that's a 3 meg package. You need to get Eircom to correct that.

the speed test was done on a vodafone connection so if your with them you will need to get them to increase the speed

Thanks just what i thought.

How long should it take to change? is it a matter of changing a setting on a computer at their end, or is a physical change.
thanks

Just a config change done remotely. Worst case is that it'll only kick in over night.
