Noise margin aiming for 6 now?

[shermsta]

Hi, why is my router now aiming for a noise margin of 6. It was aiming for 3 for a long time. I have lost speed now, I used to get 67 mbps now i get 59 mbps.

Because DLM sees too many errors with a 3dB margin and has lowered your speed to reduce the errors. Hence your SNRM is now 6dB

Will it go back to 3? I havnt seen it aiming for 6 for a long while? like a couple years

Once the fault that is causing the errors/problem clears, then yes, it will return to 3dB.
