I moved in few months ago to quiet new property (less than 2 years old) and since then i was on the case to check all extensions etc. Originally I sync about 69Mb/s and this make me think that something is wrong with wiring in the house because in master socket I sync around 73mb/s, so I start reading the whole internet :P and looked into all extension (yest they all was connected to master socket). After I find this out firs job was to find where they join together, so after a half day looking for nicely hidden plate in one of the wardrobes i disconnected all extensions apart of one to which is connected modem (can’t connect direct to master socket because is placed by the front door, I couldn’t imagine worse place) that give me straightaway 12Mb/s boost on sync (on modem currently used not the Asus), when compared with master socket there is no much difference now (maybe kilobytes). So in this case I’m convinced about wiring in my house. I believe the Broadcom chipset  is to sensitive because on lantiq chipset modem I get around 140k fec errors in week time.

If you look on my latest screen shoot you will see that I’m capped on download now because of millions of these errors. I believe if amount of these errors will keep to high (even that modem do great job to correct them, DLM don’t like it) I will be capped even lower, and then will be a time to give a call to provider I guess.
