I just realised most of the time calling tech support for network (espec streamyx) takes a very long time to solve the problem, and usually a frustrating process (not to mention causing "heart attacks" and "hypertension" and "strangling t*n*t's neck syndrome). Here are things which I found out and it helps greatly espec for the technical support side and yourself. At least it would speed up the the process on getting the appropriate actions done.

All this is taken from ZTE ADSL 831 Modem webpage. You can get the info via telnet too but i don't think everyone knows telnet .

1. If your case is having frequent disconnections, meaning suddenly got signal and no signal, first thing u should is check ur SNR ratings in ur DSL Param.



Check your local and remote SNR margin. the higher the better. the ratings below is for local SNR margin.

30 and above = Good, u shouldnt have disconnections problems.

15 - 30 = Maybe a few when peak time, probably your line needs to be changed

15 and below = Very FREQUENT disconnections. You should consult telekom to have your line checked, most cases are because the line are too old and once they are changed they're fine (the lines on the telephone poles). If you're using a lightning surge protector. REMOVE it. they are known to weaken the signal by around 50-70% in order to prevent the surge on devices.

I found this under WAN -> DSL -> DSL param

ADSL filters does not affect the signal quality for streamyx connections. they only filter out noise for your telephone. Using it or not shouldn't affect your data transfer at all.

As for attenuation, the lower the better. but i don't know the effects other than these yet anyway it shouldn't go above 40dB....most of the time attenuation increases with the decrease of SNR .

2. I have DSL signal but I can't login =(.

Check your ppp details.



Check your last fail cause.

Last Fail Cause: Indicates the action that ended the previous PPP session:

No Valid PADO Recvd: The unit initiated a PPoE handshake but did not receive a packet in reply from the ISP.

No Valid PADS Recvd: After the initial handshake, the unit did not receive a confirmation packet from the ISP.

Stopped by User: The user stopped the connection (for example, by changing the Configuration Manager settings for the PPP interface.)

No Activity: The PPP communication timed out, in accordance with the timeout period specified on the PPP Configuration page.

Auth Failure: The ISP could not authorize the connection based on the user name and/or password provided.

PADT recvd: The ISP issued a special packet type to terminate the PPP connection.

VC down: The Virtual Circuit between the unit and the ISP is down.

Internal failure: A system software failure occurred.

This is found under Routing -> PPP -> click the magnifying glass.

3. I can login but i can't surf!

Be sure to set your DNS servers...
202.188.0.132, 202.188.0.133, 202.188.1.5

4. I can't even login to my router page now, sometimes I can't even get ip address and i can't ping it.



Chances are you got into your router's blacklist......disable and clear it...remember to commit the changes. use another pc to login to it.

Try changing network cables too...for some reason it doesn't like CAT5 cables very much....i'm using CAT 5e cables now even though my CAT 5 cable is working fine with another network .

this is found in Services -> Firewall

For username and password for the modem...check under the pinned router transformation guide.

5. For more troubleshooting to find out which link is causing problem (gateway,dns server, international link)
Open cmd window, and type: (-t denotes infinite)

ping 219.93.218.177 -t
this would ping streamyx gateway infinitely,this is to test the link between u and TMNET gateway. if there's a lot of timeouts here, then u knw where the problem lies. typical ping here is around 50-80ms

if there's no problem, then do this
ping 202.188.0.133 -t
this would ping the DNS server infinitely, to test connection to DNS servers (typical ping is around 80-150ms)

ping google.com -t
this would ping google.com or any other sites, to test international links. for google.com its about 300-400ms.

basically the route path is
You -> Gateway (219.93.218.177) -> DNS server (202.188.0.133) -> Destination

Other DNS server ip
202.188.0.132
202.188.1.5 (my personal choice)

Latency needed to get data across the pacific is around 300ms.

6. Mis-capped case - how can i get back my "actual" bandwidth?

1. Save a screenshot of your router page with the upload and download bandwidth.
2. Make a call to streamyx hotline.
3. Tell them that you have been mis-capped.
4. Tell them that you are sure it has been mis-capped because :
i) you discovered about it when u accessed your router configuration page (IMPORTANT!). And make sure the screenshot includes the date on the taskbar so that you can ask for a rebate (you don't have this they say they cant check bla bla bla and say you cant rebate cuz in their system its correct since the day its been activated)
ii) you have a screenshot of it if they demand proof and u say u will send it thru email to them if necessary
iii) add frustration and unsatisfactory tone (VERY IMPORTANT TOO)
iv) be confident that you have been mis-capped. dont let the technician think ur a newbie
5. wait for 2-3 days, should be fixed by then. if not. continue to call, or just go to clickers and demand them to change on the same day or see their manager.

- I was a victim of mis-capped case too 2 years ago, got 512k instead of 1M. unfortunately i had to resort to step 5. Remember, you're the customer, dont need to be "understanding" to them. after all, this is their mistake, not yours.

*** tip by masamura! ***

By the way.. I'm here to let you guys know what to do if you are miscapped. Recently through my own experience of TMNet's crazy mood of purposely downgrading my 1Mbps link to 512Kbps, I've taken some steps that assured my restoration of speed. So here goes:

1) Make a report through 1300-88-9515
2) Call them once a day with the SAME report number that you initially got.
3) Call them till it's the 3rd *working* day.
4) Call them again on the 4th working day and tell them that you've just got "Suruhanjaya Komunikasi dan Multimedia Malaysia's" complain form and if the problem is not fixed by 7th day, you'll post it through POS-DAFTAR.
5) Continue to call them and also write e-mail to custcare@tm.net.my and tell them that you are going to complain to MCMC on the 7th day.
6) On the 7th day if they haven't fixed your problem(which I assure you, they will by now...) Go to http://www.mcmc.gov.my/consumer/complaint.asp and download the form, fill it in and send it to MCMC via POS-DAFTAR (for confirmation purpose).
7) MCMC will write a letter back to you within 3 working days. Scan this letter, attach it to custcare@tm.net.my and call 1300-88-9515 with the MCMC reference and let them know and tell them to update it to your report that you've complained to MCMC (it's part of MCMC's proceedure).

Finally..

Sit back. Continue to call them everyday.. be nice and talk to them nicely. Within 15 days, MCMC will call you and tell you that TMNet is going to send their technician the next working day + refund your lost of speed for that amount of time.. hehe! Personal experience!

Anyway, lesson to learn here is... Complaining at TMNet and LowYat do no good. If you *really* want to complain, go to MCMC!

>>> http://www.mcmc.gov.my <<<

p/s: As for me.. the technician came on a Sunday night and TMNet's senior engineer called me on the same night to confirm with me if my line have been upgraded to 1Mbps package. Took me about 1 month to get them to upgrade my line back + refund!

****************************
hope this helps......and please post here for extra suggestions here too.

p/s : i'm just a normal college student, i have no affliations with tmnet or whatso-ever.

Quite normal...i guess u live quite far frm the xchange

downstream is ok i guess..

but my upstream?

WLFung : pretty much average...maybe u'll have some problems in surfing during peak times =.=.

strynch : at least ur downstream is good...upstream...oklar...not so bad

i see.. thanks bro

Good guide you made there.

Maybe you can add the procedure/question Streamyx Support will ask caller?

If you have frequent dc like i had after transferring my Streamyx to another area phone system, try to contact Telekom 1st to check out the phone line quality 1st. Next if can, bring your modem+splitter to another friend house with Streamyx to confirm your modem is working correctly. Try to use your login name and password to confirm your account is not blacklisted. If you've confirmed your modem, account and phone line is A OK and still dc, call them up and request for technician to check at their site. Do mention all the testing you have done by yourself.

Btw, depends on the technician, if he's lazy abit then your problem will drag on for quite some time. Mine took 2 weeks plus to be solved. Rang their support till they put me to highest level of complaint...hehehe....

i cant seem to login using firefox. is it normal?

Me too!I even worse!After configuring it(ZTE831) to router mode,I can't access other configuration page using any other browser beside the main configuration page!

amazing guide, will have it try at my house.

the streamyx helpline always ask you to do some self-check. below are some of the areas i can recall
1. try bypass the splitter and direct connect
2. if switch/hub exist, try bypass them as well

have to admit, their questions are very standard and is catle for commoner, not for those with technical knowledge.

yeah ADSL filters/splitters affects a lot of they are spoilt, including disconnections when u pick up the phone or no dial tone to phone.

anyway, use internet explorer to login to the modem website. it doesn't load correctly in firefox most of the time.

very useful guide

is there any problem with mine?

my atten seems so high, anyway to fix it?

for those who cant login to your router page with web browser

try this , go to Start => Run => type telnet

then inside the dos , type Open 10.0.0.2 (varies depending on your router ip)

then type your password

after that , just choose Save Selection and Reset your modem inside it
(I not sure whether all router are same anot but my one is like this )

oh yah after the router is resetted than u can login with your web browser already. forget to add this line , silly me

anyone knows whether can access aztech modem status? <- which dont have router function i guess

Is mine normal? Cause after sometimes even if i still connected i cannot surf the net. After i dc manually and reconnect back from the dial-up connection there, i can surf again.. Lame... any problem here?

is my connection ok???? can pls help me out...
i suffer from frequent disconnection.. and also internet down...
sharing my connection with 4 others...
thanks

y my revision number is different from the other posted prints??? izzit mine older???

siaush : i think urs quite ok leh..despite the high attenuation, ur SNR is still quite high. u shouldnt have many dc problems.

gold3knight : Try connecting direct without filter. if still no improvement, you have to wait until telekom come and change ur cables...

[W]HIT3_@NG3L : CRC error ar? CRC very hard to say wor...might be streamyx might be the router that ur data hopped on got errors or attenuation....

ampbuster and darkjedi : WAH........omg...so high..the stats same like my streamyx connection back in my hometown.....dc every few mins and then have to wait over 1 hour only can connect back ><. are u using any lightning surge protector?

timothyy: 2MB ADSL? *jaws dropped. ur SNR looks quite ok ak....make sure ur modem doesnt autostop when there's no data transmitting lor....

Morpheusyeng: if u want to access ur router via telnet, u have to go into the web interface first,make a username and password in authentication (i think). den run hyperterminal or cmd -> telnet ip address and enter ur username and password that u created. aztech telnet is a bit hard to use though, so be careful when u fiddle wif stuff via telnet. as of modem status, u check ur web interface -> under dsl, there should be a status about what ur modem is doing....

wk1168 and yyteik : ur SNR a bit low...maybe thats y always dc or got packet drop lor....is ur modem directly connected from the wall port or it got split at a filter /telephone splitter. if not, maybe ur line old oredi lor...check with ur frens nearby about the SNR margin and see....

2MB ...

I mean 2.0mbps. He! He!. My IT knowledge very "cha" one.

I will try to turn off the auto off.

Don't think I can turn it off. It says Reconnect when no signal then 1 empty box for you to fill in, and max is 32767 seconds. Previously was 0. So, I changed it to 32767 now.
Correct ah?


This post has been edited by timothyy: Jul 19 2005, 11:59 PM

how about mine?what's the different between interleaved and fast latency?any different?

erm .. i think if u wanna get higher SNR Margin or low Line Atten...
just move ur house closer to Exchange .... hehe ...
if next door to Exchange still get low SNR margin .. then cabling problem ....
check phone line ... shorter better ...

is there any way to check my DSL parameters and status without the router?
thanks

SnowFish look at mine



Any comments on this?

wow! maximum download is 5184 and upload is 416, it will never reach 8mbps max. i saw the reading from the tester that a technician used.

ermmm....
after seeing you people's DSL parameter.... i cant help but wonder about mine...



izzit normal to have 0.0dB on both Local and Remote Tx power??
BTW whats Tx power??
izzit good??

my connection is okay.. no DC at all... highest DL speed 40Kbps on Azureus downloading Linux torrent...

any comment??

thanx...

Unless the lines is ok go for it do u use any ADSL surge line protector?

yup... why?? does it have sumthing to do with the 0.0 dB Tx Power??
izzit true the lightning/surge protector can affect my DL performance?? if it does, then i guess better take it out...

Yes it can take out ur download performance try the same things did u see an differences?

I've noticed that if i set the modem to T1.413, i have SNR download 45++ and SNR upload 25++, but if in G.dmt mode, SNR download 43++ and the SNR upload is around 4/5
DOes the handshake protocol affect my connection? Whats the differentce between those two aside from the speed supported?

I am juz curios....What is this (rounded in red...)What is the erros...n mine is OK...but y i getting dc every time..??any reason...

don't give it a see, who cares? as long as the connection is stable.

my snr margin was very low,the onli way to increase it is ask tmnet to change the line?i just facing dc problem since this week.last 2 month no problem at all.

amenlo9:a lot of thunderstorms around ur area? how about construction?

CRC errors generally are due to the data are changed/damaged/loss en route to ur. maybe due to attenuation or routers error. each data packet has a crc checksum for the router recalculate to see if the data packet received is 100% complete. if its not, it will be discarded. basically there's nothing much u can do about crc error,most of the time the cause is due to the fault of the transmission medium. in other words, ur telephone line (most probably).

interleaved - slower but less error
fast - fast but might have more error
these are posted somewhere in the forums but i cant recall....

i try to answer the rest of the questions later k...i doing assignment now......hard disk kena bad sector today just got replacement

yeap,my modem become dc frequently after a ligthening struck!!so now it will be always dc and snr margin is low.i wonder how come u know that?

how about loss of signal and what the ideal number for line
atteunation

Pls refer to http://forum.lowyat.net/index.php?showtopi...dpost&p=4561212

i would like to ask that do my download stream SNR margin still ok r?and also the line attenuation?

thank alot.

lower SNR means slower speed??

SNR means the stability of ur connection, it does not have anything to do with ur connection speed. connection speed depends on latency and bandwidth.

davidsk2002 : should be quite stable..maybe 1 day 1-2 times dc......are u connecting directly to ur phone port?

my snr margin will drop after online for a long time,is this normal?i on my pc 24/7.initially i will get 31db,after that my snr margin will drop slowly....besides,my attenuation is 46db

how about your speed?fast or not?

uhh, doh...i've been struggling for more than 2month...da problem is dat i couldnt sign in to my hotmail acc...i could enter www.hotmail.com, but after i've type out my email add n pass, it came out 'da page couldnt b display'...n when i click 'back', itz written there 'da page has expired'...

i called tmnet, they asked me to do stuff like :
tool > internet option > delete cookies,
create a new network connection,
try using other browser like firefox, netscape, etc (i'm currently using msn explorer which i couldnt even sign in also)
reset modem, unplug replug etc
change DNS num, proxy
try using yahoo mail (it work) only hotmail couldnt sign in

alright, it wouldnt work no matter wurt... until 2day i still couldnt sign in my msn explorer or check my mail...btw, di important point is dat i could surf to other website very well, no probz at all...any solution pls ?

BlitzAce : looks like telephone line problem lor...........the port quite far from ur area?

amenlo9 : there are many factors due to SNR drops, it doesn stay stable all the time, but it shouldnt have much drastic change, unless something drastic happens.

unstoppable: thats good

bluesky87: never liked hotmail....i think its the routing problem...since yahoo mail can open.

anyway guys, try this.
open ur cmd window, type

ping 219.93.218.177 -t
this would ping streamyx gateway infinitely, u can see whether the problem lies where. if there's a lot of timeouts here, then u knw where the problem lies. typical ping here is around 50-80ms

if there's no problem, then do this
ping 202.188.0.133 -t
this would ping the DNS server infinitely, to test connection to DNS servers

ping google.com -t
this would ping google.com, to test international links

basically the route path is
You -> Gateway (219.93.218.177) -> DNS server (202.188.0.133) -> Destination

Other DNS server ip
202.188.0.132
202.188.1.5 (my personal choice)

updated first page with this info.

for crc error, please do a google on it. i think u can find more accurate information abt it. (sorry im just not good at explaining )

SnowFish,

What may cause the timeout request error when i ping to the gateway? (219.93.218.177) and what should i do..? My internet is very slow lately.. but when downloading/uploading files its quite fast.. only on http request..

hope u can help me troubleshoot b4 i report to tmnet.. my IP is start from 219.xxx

Is it bcoz of my modem+router? Thinking of getting a new one but not sure it's worth it to buy.

thanx..

how to know the distance between our line and exchange?

i knew my distance from the exchange when i did online registration.

I also had the same problem, but it's nothing to do with TMnet it's all in your compuer config..
I had this cuz i was using a software to block adult sites and it was blocking the hotmail site as HOT_mail or you can also check out your internet options>security settings and restore default in Advance tab..

I wonder how is mine..

Please enlightnen me...

Many thanks..

bluesky87: routing means the way tmnet direct ur packets....
in simpler sense : the road u take when travelling, maybe the road u take got road block or got landslide, so got delay.

you're warned man, there's someone already got sued because of miscapped, don't show off here.

yeah..watch out , if you think tmnet misccaped , then call them ask to cap them back..seriously , you could be in trouble later (you may never know)

anybody hav the link to "how to set up zte modem to router mode?"

i cant find the thread liao

thx to voiceofnation for ur guide,
thx to snowfish for ur defination,

and

thx to prasys for those webbie...

hehe btw, i had a solution already, di ultimate solution of all i cant stand it n i had juz formatted my pc, everything is fine now, i can finally check my mail n log in my msn explorer...does dat consider as a solution ? hmm, should b da laziest way to handle problem...

BUMP ~~
well i have a question here ...
a few days ago i was having this problem ... which is like ...
I could connect to streamyx, but i cant download anything(download rate < 1kbps)
very slow that is

but well i phoned that dude and he told me to
1. unplug all the wires of the modem
2. wait 10 minutes
3. plug in
4. Create a new connection
5. set DNS (streamyx connection) 202.188.0.133 (preferred), 202.188.1.5(alternate)
6. connect to the internet.

and its working fine now ...
the problem is i want to know why izzit like that ?

maybe more concentrate on a fix domain, it will guide ur connection to d right gua... haha, just my opinion...

And now my problem is i can online and download/upload as well...

but i did check my bandwidth speed... my download speed are abnormal... according to technician from tmnet, i suppose to get over 600Kbits for register 1Mb package. but i just manage to get 42x.xx Kbits. Later i follow their instruction like wat did SeeD said tat 6 steps, but i still cannot configure it over 600Kbits.

Quite dissapointed cuz i already dialed there 3 times, and waste RM1x.xx for my h.p... everytimes diff ppl ask same questions and give alike answer...

Need Help, thanks!!!

Guys, wanna ask for some advice.

I have a very low rating Local SNR Margin at NIGHT, I can't even connect properly. This only happened at night and the line connection works great at day.

At day, the Local SNR Margin can achieve to 25-30, at night, it only has <15. I have gave a call to 100 and the person told me that their technician doesn't provide internal wiring. They suggest me to find the construtor or any specialist to change the internal phone line. So where I can these specialist? Do I need to change the external phone line too?

i hate this, juz got dc 1M times only got back to post this stupid result... what do u pros think? should i lodge a report to ask tm ppl come and hav a look?

osxchd : u have a very big problem there...nothing wrong with tmnet...i think u should telekom to come have a look at ur wire...u staying at a very old housing estate?

SeeD: weird stuff happens sometimes....like my distribution box last time terbakar also i dunno...change it and i got 40++ SNR already.....got a shock when i open it that time .

hurm...
look at mine.
i subsribe with 1mbps, yet see what i get 512kbps downstream..
i had call tmnet, they ask me to do the same thing, bypass, flushdns, and etc...
is this named by miscap? they told me that they had upgrade.. is there something wrong wif my modem? dsl3100r

I'm using 1Mbps package... call tmnet they say they had upgrade..... already been like this for more than half year. when complaining through email.. they just ask me test speedometer again and again and again.....

i had the same prob, apply for 1MB but got 512, what i did was call them up and give them a piece of my mind, and demand for rebate....

to my surprise, within a week it went up to 1mb.

i think mine is gonecase
so the main cause is outside telephone wiring right?

you can try T1.413 mode

can you teach me how to set?
i'd searched google and also browse thru my modem admin but couldn't find where to set it.

thank you

the command should be modify dsl config T1413, commit, reboot.

hi there,

comment bout my line, pls...have been getting disconnected frequently for the past week. not sure why. worse of all, i can't send e-mail with attachment (100kB to 1MB or more) in it. is it due to my phone line or my modem problem? i'm using Aztech DSL305L. it's been 3 years now.

sry, can't upload screenshot , as i said.. i can't upload a single sh*t....

side note : i'm using Belkin wireless router for a laptop and desktop. do i have to set the DNS (202.188.0.133 & 202.188.1.5) inside the router? what else do i need to set? thx for ya help.

My line very frequently gets disconnected. What could be the prob? I've checked and it shows that Local line attenuation is 35.5 dB and remote line attenuation is 15.0 dB

Could the high attenuation be the prob? Getting very frustrated with the connection!

What can be done to rectify this problem?

Hi guys, i'm using Aztech DSL600E, how am i going to check the parameter?

need some help...sometimes, when i'm turn off my modem and then on it back, it can't login..actually i've set my modem(kasda) to be autodial and the problem is that my connection is not totally disconnected when i first turn it off. when calling TMNET, they will reset/kill the connection and then i just can reconnect immediately...is there any other way rather than calling TMNET to kill my previous connection....

stupid techinical went to the exchange resetted 4 me, the problem still there, at least 5 times dc a day... i did another complaint to them asking the technician to come over to my house. yet again... hopefully the so called "technicial" knows what's he's doin...

osxchd: what exactly did the technician do?

those having frequent dc problems, please refer to my first post on the ping test..that way u'll knw where the fault lies....

edu: just wait for abt 5 mins.that should kill ur connection...

SnoWFisH: can explain more??when should i wait for abt 5 mins??

This the time needed by the access server to reset your session login. Though sometimes it will do it very quickly.

this is what those tmnet ppl called hang session, it happens once in a while, there are no ways on your side can do about it, it's up to the ppl in tmnet to delete your session.
