It has days where it works fine, then it rains or is windy and I get a lot of dropouts. But running the line slow enough to prevent them is painful. So I just have to put up with it. 6 engineer visits have tried and failed to improve things.<br /><br />The thing that helped in the end is a Zyxel modem, it's a lot more reticent about re-syncing than a D-Link or the TG582n and just waits for the line to come back, which is often quicker than a resync.Owen Smithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00890951742186614705noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3993498847203183398.post-9994472713806809202014-11-21T11:31:10.151+00:002014-11-21T11:31:10.151+00:00Out of interest, given your access to the line sta...Out of interest, given your access to the line stats on TT, have you considered writing your own DLM?<br /><br />It would look at the line stats every so often (say every loss of PPP, and once a day on top), and change profile if there are obvious issues.Simon Farnsworthhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15190608047563530091noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3993498847203183398.post-43048527253302405292014-11-21T09:47:05.941+00:002014-11-21T09:47:05.941+00:00That is a good question.

The latency depends on the line sync speed and interleave settings, which are more controllable on TT, but they also depend on the path through the back-haul. I have not done any stats, but generally BT and TT are much the same, but do vary from line to line. As such we could not say that latency would not change when changing carrier.RevKhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12369263214193333422noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3993498847203183398.post-23577009749976658332014-11-20T21:00:57.782+00:002014-11-20T21:00:57.782+00:00That's a very interesting post, thanks.

I imagine it to be TT, but you guys should know better with all your monitoring kit. :)<br /><br />I'm on a BT line at the moment, but I certainly wouldn't object to being switched to a TT line if it's likely to be better latency..._thalamushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18195290566480282838noreply@blogger.com
