Find Full DSL Stats for the SNR connection settings

Hello,
Business 80/20 BB:
I have a Netgear Nighthawk X4R7500 router connected to the OpenReach modem.
How do I discover the SNR please?
Netgear have said that I will need to access the modem for the full DSL stats.
Cheers Guy.

Re: Find Full DSL Stats for the SNR connection settings

Hi,
I now have a modem that is unlocked and I am getting 6.8db downstream and 15.8db upstream. It's the upstream where I have issues I'm getting 14 from a potential of 20. Images are attached
I called PlusNet support today and they tell me, because my BB is FTTC, they cannot do anything regarding the SNR.

Re: Find Full DSL Stats for the SNR connection settings

Your line is in sync at the maximum possible speed so a high noise margin is good
Why the upstream speed test is low I don't know but if you run this test it may give an indication http://www.thinkbroadband.com/speedtest.html?utm_source=mainsite&utm_medium=navigation&utm_campaign=...

Re: Find Full DSL Stats for the SNR connection settings

This is beyond me but the reference to buffer bloat is perhaps part of the problem

I hope that some of the more knowledgeable posters may be able to help
One quick check
What is the MTU set in your router
