Router reboot/resync and BT IP profile

A question on the way the BT IP profile system works.
If I am synced at 5350 kbps, with a BT IP profile of 4500 kbps, and I carry out a router reboot/resync and obtain a sync of 4930 kbps, do I have another chance to try and resync at a higher level, to keep my 4500 kbps BT profile?
Or does that lower resync, no matter how quickly I try for a higher resync, mean I will get a BT IP profile of 4000 kbps for the next 72 hours?

If your sync rate drops into a lower band then it takes 72 hours to recover provided you are able to resync within the higher band.
If your dsl connection drops and you immediately resync at the same or a higher rate then your profile is unaffected and the 72 hour clock is not restarted.
Hope that makes sense (and is accurate - someone will let us know if it's not!)

OK just as I thought - if I get a brief low sync I am going to get the lower IP profile, no matter what I do.
Pity BT can't use the 75 minute rule for providing a higher IP profile as well.

Time to call up BT to scrap that!

Quote from: goldenadsl Wow! How quickly it will be ?
Instant
Quote from: goldenadsl It all new MSANs on the ADSL2+ isn't it ?
I think BT will be upgrading them all as far as I know.
Quote from: goldenadsl When it available ?
I've heard October so far, but it is being trailled on some 21CN ADSL2+ connections now.
Quote from: goldenadsl Also, how can I tell if it does applied to my exchange MSANs on my ADSL2+ ?
If you do a speedtest at the BT Speedtester and the IP Profile it displays doesn't end in a 0 or 5 then you are most likely on the trial.

From BT speedtester - DSL connection rate 5176 Kbps - IP profile for your line is 4566 Kbps. So I guess my exchange is enabled.
However
Quote from: Joanne Don't forget that bRAS quantization will soon be in place on ADSL2+ MSANs. Once this happens the profile will go up and down just as quickly.
Jojo
I am on ADSL2, will the new system apply to my connection, or do you have to be on ADSL2+ ?

At the moment 40% of MSANs are enabled. We've been informed that they should all be enabled by October.
@Derek your router will have chosen ADSL2 as the better option over ADSL2+ but you are currently on ADSL2+. Depending on how your line performs your router can switch between ADSL2 and 2+ so yes, yours will also be enabled by October.
