HOME --- > Data Rate : 1024 / 384 kbps
SOHO ----> Data Rate : 1536 / 512 kbps

download from rapidshare
HOME -> 109KBps (MAX)
SOHO -> 160KBps (MAX)

I have 2 line which is home & soho and both 1Mbps, but the SOHO more faster than the HOME

can some one explain why the connection is like that even though the connection is the same 1Mbps

Are u testing on the same telephone line?
Downloading the same file from the same server?

Probably its a miscapped, anyway soho and home package are the same just price different whether u believe me or not.

no,

soho phone line + soho 1Mbps package = max download 109KBps

home phone line + home 1Mbps hope away package = max download 160KBps


why the speed different?

Actually ....... This is a technically mistake of the technician. package 512 kbps can get 2mbps or either 2mbps get 512kbps sometimes. Depend on the location also

Like i've said....

Phoneline quality affect the signal and capping of the account also affect the download speed.

Both of the telephone line is from the same DP Box and same Telekom Cabinet



1. login to BILLION modem (http://192.168.1.254/),
2. go to section (Status > Device Info )
3. The Result is like this



SOHO Result
---------------
.............................Downstream..........Upstream
SNR Margin :.................24.5.................22.0 db
Line Attenuation:........... 0.0..................12.0 db
Data Rate:....................1536.................512 kbps




HOME Result
---------------
.............................Downstream..........Upstream
SNR Margin :.................36.5.................31.0 db
Line Attenuation:........... 33.5..................8.5 db
Data Rate:....................1024.................384 kbps



RESEARCH TRIAL
--------------------
SOHO login + HOME phone = 110 KBps (MAX)
SOHO login + SOHO phone = 160 KBps (MAX)
HOME login + HOME phone = 110 KBps (MAX)
HOME login + SOHO phone = 160 KBps (MAX)

My findings is the speed is referring to the Phone line so even though you have 4Mbps steamyx login ID and you use to your HOME line the connections is still the same but if you have 512Mbps steamyx login ID and you use it to SOHO PHONE LINE ( before that using streamyx 4Mbps) you connection will as same as 4Mbps speed.


Just want to verify here, i heard from somebody, if the telekom Man made mistake during jumper your phone line to high speed phone line (2Mbps) and your can get the connection speed without register the package?

i thing i agreed with stephenrave opnion

your last 1is true. Last time i paid one to tweak my line to 4mbps but paying 2mbps.

identical line & from same TM cabin, does not mean = speed.

Speed are cap at 2 lvl
DSL & account

DSL
Data Rate:....................1536.................512 kbps
Data Rate:....................1024.................384 kbps

account (base on package)
home@streamyx
soho@streamyx

true & false.
if yr a/c preset with 1Mbps you won't go any further than 1Mbps. old user a/c preset with more than 1Mbps(real speed remain unknown)

What use of knowing it?

can u intro me ur technician?

Agree with u bro..since my fren also have prblm with his streamyx 512kb package..then one telekom tech adjust something to telekom line near to his home..
After that..now he can use 1mb although his only paid for 512kb only..

you didn't realize how important it is until you face the problem one day

You're just lucky that someone capped your line wrongly. Now , don't be greedy and ask where can I get this sort of thing. Its against your ISP EULA and Lowyat.net isn't the place for you to 'intro' people who would uncap your lines , etc

Who said that i want to do something stupid, do you now how many process will go through only by jumper your line, for the past year is very easy, but nowadays K.O , except you the man that have the power to do that

I'm not pointing fingers , but generally I am saying out that its illegal to do such things. I am advicing to the rest on the 'how do I uncap my line'. Anyhow , your SOHO Line has been miscapped by the TM Technician , I guess instead of setting it to 1Mbps , he set it to 1.5Mbps. Just consider it to be a blessing from TM - . Account capping will be done in two ways , one is through imposing a hard limit on the account itself and the other one is in the DSLAM itself. You could have a 4Mbps account but if the DSLAM syncs only at 1Mbps , you'll be enjoying 1Mbps only , same case goes for when you have a 1Mbps account and a 4Mbps line , then you'll be getting at most 1-1.2Mbps (it wouldn't exceed more unless TM made a mistake in your account)

Every single damn streamyx users paying a 1mb SOHO or Home account will get 1.5mb account capped, its just your port capped differently..that's all.

yaps thats truth, i already tested with my friends login id (Streamyx 4.0Mbps) in my SOHO line, the MAX connection is still 160KBps






So that means,
1. i can terminate ( SOHO login & HOME phone line) and leave the SOHO phone line
2. Use the 1Mbps HOME login & SOHO phone line to get the 1.5mb access


just wondering if i terminate the SOHO login ID, is it have side effect to the SOHO phone line (TM will capped the phone to NO STREAMYX ACCESS after i terminate my SOHO Streamyx)

NOTE - What we discuss here is NOT about 'how do I uncap my line', just for experimental only & to use the blessing from TM because they give me 1.5Mbps instead of 1Mbps

i think u start reading how ADSL works.

u can't terminate soho login or home phone line. you will lose the DSL service "a/c are tie to the number"

BPR didn't read forum?
