Maximum Bandwidth v's Bandwidth

[#1]

is my maximum bandwidth supposed to show that it is lower than my actual bandwidth?

Now that is unusual.
I haven't seen that before - it must be the way your router calculates things

Maybe it is taking into account the target SNRM of 9db and calculating how much speed it thinks you would loose were you to resync?

[#4]

Many routers calculate the Maximum Bandwidth based on a reference SNR Margin (usually 6dB), although the figures above indicate a current margin of 6dB that's likely to be rounded to 0.5dB (some routers display to nearest 0.1 dB and others round to whole numbers), your SNR  margin is probably slightly lower then 6dB (but not low enough to be rounded to 5.5) so it calculates the likely speed you'd get if you resynced at a 6dB target margin.
Some routers (2-Wire HGV2700 for example) seem to be aware of current target margin (or estimate it from the last sync) and calculate the 'maximum' bandwidth based on this.
[EDIT] sorry, I read the 'Up' figures rather than 'Down' but the same pretty much applies

i see its been up for 8 hours ,could it be the last re sync wasn't a hard reboot and that's the overall figure for the line
another way of putting it ,maybe it would show correctly after hard rebooting the router

[#6]

I did a hard rebot of the router 8 hours ago to see if it would sort it after it had been that way for 5 days.
but it did'nt help

In my experience Maximum Bandwidth being less than the current Bandwidth is nothing unusual, mine is presently and usually is after dark. I don't know how the router works Maximum Bandwidth out but I assume scope for bit-swapping is probably taken into consideration as well as current vs target noise margin.
