I've just give streamyx tech support a call friday evening to asked them about the my high line attenuation which is 63.5 dB...From a wbsite i read it says that for 1Mbps connection..the ideal length between the originated port and the location of the other own should be around 6km to get a line attenuation of 20dB..i called them and asked..they told me that from the main port/server to my place..the distance is only 4 km..and i asked them back..how come the line attenuation high..It seems that he got no idea and tell me to restart my modem instead coz i've been using it for 16 hours without reset it. The guy was preety polite thou compared to previous one i have called before..huhu..

So do you guys have any other opinion on how to get the line attenuation lower than my current 63.5 dB? I'm currently staying in melaka..ayer keroh..MMU here..Does changing to a new modem then th current bilion modem would help or i need to change the telephone cable here? My house phone, when called outside it felt like talking so far..like suara kelam-kelam..does that play any part in this?
