The profile on this connection has been 7.9 for weeks. I've had a couple of deliberate disconnections in that time but always re-connected at 7.9.
Again reconnected four days ago at 7.9 (according to BT) but I see this morning the Plusnet profile has changed to 7.8.
Like I said only a small amount but I'm still curious why the change? Do Plusnet work out their own profiles now regardless of BTs?

On 21CN BT's IP profile is 88.2% of the sync speed, rounded as explained by spraxyt.

Quote from: spraxyt actually be 7896kbps (say) which is printed as 7.90Mbps
That figure is exactly what 88.2% of my current sync speed is so that goes some way to explain things.
Still there was me thinking the profile recorded on BT's test page was set in gold.

Is there a similar relationship between "Maximum Bandwidth" and "Bandwidth"? (at the time of reconnection)
Maybe some percent figure the same as between "Bandwidth" and "Profile" or some set amount related to the "SN Margin".

- the target noise margin ratio was met exactly,
- bits per tone followed an ideal attenuation-based trend, with
- optimum (whatever that means) allowance for future bit swap activity to cope with "typical" noise.
In the real situation the relationship at reconnection isn't 1 to 1 as I'm sure you'll have noticed. Possibly any difference is a rough indicator of router to exchange connection quality, though I don't know how users might make use of that.
This is basically PeeGee's suggestion interpreted in a different way.

I don't recall seeing the max rate as low as the sync.

On mine the bandwidth is generally 700 or so below the max on reconnection. In the evening the max usually falls 100-200 below the bandwidth figure.

Quote from: Anotherone If it's all CW1308 standard and only terminals 2 & 5 are connected (Blue+white trace & White+blue trace) at the NTE and all sockets there shouldn't be a problem. [/url].
The peculiarity is due to the modem/router not being in "the correct place", so there is a joint (using IDC terminals and hidden) near where it should have been However, performance is the same (within expected re-sync variations) whether in the test socket/filter or its usual position.
