Some statistics:

Distance from exchange: about 1.5km
Line attenuation: 54 downstream, 28 upstream
SNR: 6.1 downstream, 7.0 upstream
Rate (kbps): 4097 downstream, 800 upstream

I got all the values (except distance from exchange) from my router.

Whats the max speed my line can support? Also, is there a way to improve these values so I can support higher speeds?

Btw I'm looking to get a 2mbps DSL connection. Right now I'm using 1mbps which works fine, but I want to know if my line can actually support 2mbps.

You've probably vanished as its been months, but the speeds reported there are your lines capability, i.e. around 4Mb/s downstream and 800kb/s upstream.

If you are only getting 1Mb/s then either your ISP is artificially capping your throughput or they are a rubbish ISP.

You would not be able to order a 2Mb/s fixed rate product on that line, but you can get a "Max" product which will give around 4Mb/s downstream no problems. There are plenty of ISP's, ourselves included, who could help.

Hello,

As per the details that you have provided with you can get somewhere between 3 to 4 megs for sure.

You can go for the 2 Megs package without worrying over it.

Would be able to help more if i had your phone number and postcode

But thats ok the information that you gave is more than sufficient.

Regards,

Brad
