    I'm not getting the 70mb in speed or download tests though, speeds are the same as before.

    Cool, will call tomorrow so

    Working with a very helpful Eircom tech support lad, I've had a lines technician check my line and it turns out that I have some sort of noise on my line.
    Another person coming tomorrow/Monday to hopefully ID the interference source. If that source is found/removed/fixed then my SNR stats will get better so hopefully my upload will improve. More as I know


  • Registered Users Posts: 65 ✭✭GLCC


    lads,

    I was switched to a 100/20 profile earlier this week as vectoring was enabled om my line. I am getting speeds of 90 / 18 on a fixed line but only 30/17 on wireless ( on 3 different devices )Do you think that the router just isnt capable of anything higher wirelessy and do i need to think about changing it for something a bit better ?


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,705 ✭✭✭fat-tony


    Wireless speeds are dependant on the capability of the router and the devices. I know that the VF router is theoretically capable of "N" grade but the best we have seen is 50Mb download on wireless. Other devices will bring speeds down to the lowest common denominator, so cheapie tablet or phone will degrade wireless speeds for all. You have to question though, whether you actually need really high speeds on most wireless devices unless you are downloading huge files. Streaming of full HD should be possible using 10-12 Mb/s of bandwidth. The problem with wireless is its "bursty" nature so it's difficult to guarantee continuous uncontested downloads when other devices are calling for attention. If you spend serious money on a wireless router you may well get better performance but you need to plan your configuration and ensure all devices are up to scratch.

    cheers fat-tony. I am very happy with current speed. Just being a bit greedy I suppose knowing that is is capable of more....


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 5,575 ✭✭✭AlanS181824


    The main reason I'm choosing Fibre over UPC is that most of my devices get around 40Mb on wireless so 200Mb would be pointless to me. I wonder when the Carlow cabinets will be Vector enabled.

    The HG658c has indeed 802.11n with mimo but you need 802.11n with mimo on the client side too....

    What about the cabinets constructed in the future, do you know how long it will take for vectoring to be enabled when they go live?

    Have a client (one!) with 802.11n but still no joy!. The setup on the router seems to be b or g or b/g or b/g/n (my setting). Never seems to connect with the n client (even if all others are off) at over 50/60 Mb.

    Maybe could go to 60Mbit, but hold on a while for vectoring if it's not enabled and you definitely will.

    Enabled on install

    is vectoring enabled in drogheda? my isp is magnet am on the fatpipe 70mb package but only get 50mb due to distance from cab.

    the technicolor modem they send out does not tell you the total attainable net data rate like the eircom ones do so ive no idea myself

    Bad news: Vectoring isn't enabled because your downstream noise margin is low.
    Good news: A line attenuation of 14dB means your line can handle faster profile and should achieve 100Mb when vectoring is enabled.
    Bad news: Your noise margin may be too low for a 70Mb profile, your line could handle 60Mb.
    Bad news: Your ISP is Magnet.

    Just ring 'em and ask can your line be bumped to a faster profile.


  • Registered Users Posts: 725 ✭✭✭Mickalus


    with those stats

    60/20mb should be possible
    70/20mb if there is no line faults

    wireless n is limited to max 50mb through put

    wireless g is limited to max 27mb through put

    add just one wireless g device on your network and all wireless devices run at wireless g speeds

    vectoring is enabled on most cabs in drogheda but im not sure if magnet have pushed out the vectoring firmware yet to their modems

    all eircom modems come with an auto firmware update when the modem is first installed to enable vectoring

    They have to have. If vectoring was enabled and magnet CPE wasnt compliant all their customers would shut off.

    It may be the case that their original FW had vectoring support so an update was never required.

    Will have to escalate further, as KN networks found no issues with the line.

    Ditto on the Speedtests but the profile change has only been applied in the last half hour. The bandwidth to the cabinet seems to have changed but the old 50Mb/s profile still applies beyond it. (Or that's how it looks at the moment.)

    Took a while but now operating at 70/20.

    Approx 200m from cabinet. Would like the downstream uped a bit if possible (seems to be just about able to handle a decent bump in speed) have eVision also (dunno if that affects the max speed they'll give you).

    Does any know when the providers (Vodafone, Eircom, Digiweb, Magnet etc.) will start advertising the vectored speeds? IE up to 100Mb. Thanks.

    Edit: Was meant to post this to the Vectoring thread.
