    I'm with Vodafone, i had the 8mb package but decided to take a chance on their Max Value Broadband package. My stats before and after upgrade:

    Before Upgrade:
    Upstream Downstream
    CurrRate(kbps) 828 8128
    MaxRate(kbps) 1100 16172
    NoiseMargin(dB) 14.2 18.6
    Attenuation(dB) 32.0 16.6
    Power(dBm) 12.8 0.0


    After upgrade:
    Upstream Downstream
    CurrRate(kbps) 1020 10239
    MaxRate(kbps) 1116 16572
    NoiseMargin(dB) 9.5 14.3
    Attenuation(dB) 32.0 12.8
    Power(dBm) 12.8 0.0

    ^ while i am pleased with the upstream of 1mb i'm lost as to why the downstream is sooo poor? :confused:

    As you can see my line is capable of 16mb....if anything my stats show an increase in downstream to 16.5mb?

    Voda/Eircom set a profile of 10.2mb....can anyone take a look at the stats, what's stoping say a 12mb or even 15mb profile?

    Thanks in advance :)
