Speed increased - Hub Reconnects Every Night Now....

PB54 — Tue, 12 Jan 2021 07:47:49 GMT

Everything has been great recently.

Hub would go 40-50 days without dropping connection (DSL Uptime) or restarting (System Uptime).

As per below on 7 Jan 2021 firmware was updated and i seem to have gained ~10% Downstream & Upstream Max data rate (was 3.5 / 27.0 before...) and my speeds have increased accordingly.....

However it seems almost every night since the firmware update, the connection resets about 01:30 (ish)

Everything seems ok expect for this resetting, which concerns me as if it happens too many times i am at a risk of my speeds being capped - is this right??

Is there anything to worry about looking at the stats below??

if it was ok until firmware update have you tried 1 factory reset using recessed button on back and holding until lights flash 20/30 secs just in case update not quite updated only once though

with connection speed fixed at 30mb it looks like DLM may have already taken action and line banded

Hi @imjolly

@Many thanks. I’ll hold off on the reset for now.

can you clarify the bit about “with connection speed fixed at 30mb it looks like DLM may have already taken action and line banded”

is that good or bad??
cheers

being in a banded profile is not good but is the DLM solution to keeping you connected when line appears to have problems

Ah. Thank you.

No reset tonight and ironically speed is much better at the minute.

No signs of the noisy line which i periodically experience leading to open reach doing something at the exchange.

I will read the link shortly thanks.
