DLM Reset / Line Capped?

Hello,

 

I've recently moved to using a Draytek 167 router. Speeds are the same as I've had for a while, but I noticed that my downstream is 'interleaved' and achieving a speed that is significantly below the attainable rate. I was wondering if there is any benefit in attempting a DLM reset, or anything else, to try and achieve something closer to the attainable rate.

 

Many thanks!

Re: DLM Reset / Line Capped?

Usually interleaving is applied to attempt to maintain best speed in the presence of line errors - the fact that interleaving is applied and the downstream rate is well below the max attainable rate suggests that there are (or has been) a significant number of errors seen.

Does your router report error statistics?

Usually interleaving will eventually (after some weeks...) be removed automatically. A DLM may reset things sooner - if the noise which triggered it is no longer present.

Thanks for this. It's been sitting at this speed for many months unfortunately. I've attached an image with the error stats, which I don't think are excessive.

I'd really appreciate it if a DLM reset could be attempted to see if that improves things.

Many thanks indeed!

Because I like to break rules, I'm not going to follow through the troubleshooting side of things and just do the DLM reset for you, Popped it through now for you. 

 

I feel like a rebel now.
