FTTC Interleaving

Annoyingly, I seem to have had interleaving applied for a few weeks now after previously syncing at 80/20 with no interleaving at all.
I believe it may have been my own fault - I was reorganising my little server cupboard and there were a lot of power cycles within a short period of time. It was the morning following this that the interleaving was applied.
I have had no FEC errors since the modem was rebooted 4-5 days ago, so I don't think interleaving really needs to be on at all.
Is it possible to get a profile reset or do BTOR need to see that magic 25% profile drop before sending an engineer out? I had a line fault showing before with no action to rectify (engineer claimed the tolerances were just out), is there any chance a friendly Plusnet rep could use this to get an engineer out for a profile reset? Wink
Low latency is very important to me with remote working and gaming.

Re: FTTC Interleaving

Hi there,
Unfortunately we don't have any control over the DLM system for fibre and it doesn't sound like we'd have grounds to be able to raise a fault.
Has this actually affected your latency in a way that's detrimental to the service? I'd see if that's actually changed as you haven't mentioned if it has.

Re: FTTC Interleaving

Sync has only dropped very slightly and the connection is performing fine.

Re: FTTC Interleaving

Well DLM resynced me last night and now interleaving is done.
I guess patience is key. It is a shame it takes so long after one little mishap, though.
To the Plusnet guys - has it been discussed with BTOR whether they'll allow more finite control over DLM in the future like they did with ADSL?

Re: FTTC Interleaving

It's something that we're hopeful of being able to do in the future as it would certainly help us, no news on anything yet though.
