    Noise margins are a little low. Vodafone target 10 as a minimum, though 8 is a very safe figure.

    Without other info to compare against you cant really say thats a fault, it might just be a high profile. If the rates were much better then suddenly got worse its likely somethings gone wrong. Eircom do phone line tests to detect wiring issues.

    Would the high FEC errors and also the CRC over the DSL uptime period also not be an indication?

    Just says its working at its upper limit, which the SNR already tells us. 20k per hour isnt great, but its not super terrible either.
