This one surrounds the settings for Fibre (if and when the engineer can be bothered to turn up and not turn in a falsified "no access, no contact possible, no numbers on doors" report!).
Firstly, The Fibre Settings. I have hunted all around the internet, but I can not for the life of me turn up any consistent settings for PN FB.
I have found a few things such as:
WAN Type: DSL: VDSL WAN (PTM)
WAN Connection: PPPoE
Enable WAN: Yes
Enable NAT: Yes
Enable UPnP: Yes
Enable 802.1Q: Yes
VLAN ID: 101
802.1P: 0
Get the WAN IP automatically : Yes
Connect to DNS Server automatically: Yes
Account Settings
PPP Authentication: PAP or CHAP ?
MTU: ?

Service Name
Access Concentrator Name
Additional pppd options
Under DSL Profile, I have discovered the following:
DSL modulation: No info
ANNEX Mode: : No info
Dynamic Line Adjustment (DLM): Disabled
Stability Adjustment (VDSL): Disabled
Tx Power Control (VDSL) : Disabled
Rx AGC GAIN Adjustment (VDSL) : Stable
UPBO - Upstream Power Back Off (VDSL): Disabled
ESNP - Enhanced Sudden Noise Protection (VDSL) Stable
SRA (Seamless Rate Adaptation): Disabled
Bitswap (VDSL): Enabled
VDSL Profile: 17A Multimode
G.INP (G.998.4): Enabled
G.vector (G.993.5): Enabled
Non-standard G.vector (G.993.5): Disabled
Can anyone / is anyone able to provide clarification on any of the above as I would like to have the necessary settings to hand when the fibre is (hopefully) activated on Friday next..
If it makes a difference, Location wise I am in North London inside the boundary of the A406.

Technically, Seamless Rate Adaptation should also be enabled, even though I don't think it is currently being used.

Perhaps it is as well that I chose the Asus, especially considering the openreach box and 2704n combo will not connect......

I want to let the line settle down before I start making tweaks to settings in any case. Sync is good, but actual speed is like I am on adsl2+ given it wont budge above 19mb/s (upload is good at 12-15mb/s though...). I managed peaks of 18+ mb/s on several occasions before going fibre, so it's a bit of a mystery at the moment.

Quote from: rongtw There is No 10 day line training for Fibre
Quote from: GG I get that, but having switched and having spoken to support, I was told I still have to go through a 10 day line training.
A further example of the 10 day training period that first line support staff seem to get failing then! As above, there is no 10 day FTTC training period and PN Support have misinformed you...

Overall speeds are still "fluid" in that they have not stabilised, so the next few days should, I theory at least, give a mean average overall.
