Here’s the direct page from the Asus itself, but as I said I’ve just had a full reset randomly so its basically showing nothing. Eventually CRC and the occasional ES error on the down starts coming through, the data rate drops, the TCM on the upload changes from “ON” to numbers.
The system log continuously shows the drops and restarts but the physical system uptime doesnt drop so its not like a power drop, the dsl uptime restarts every time it drops.
Is anybody else using this for BT G.fast? I’ve tried multiple DSL settings, the G.INP. G.Vectoring profiles etc and getting the same issue with all – BT could not give me the 100% correct information to use apart from the pppoe login info which ofc already know, and Openreach wont disclose anything to me just BT as im their customer not openreachs, the usual.
EDIT: 2nd picture – another drop, as shown in the time and the rates starting to lower with the errors coming in. Heavily believing its out of my control.
EDIT: 3rd drop 3rd pic lol.

I was also concerned about the line attenuation, but was told “it was fine” several threads of g.fast users on the bt forums and elsewhere have posted similar numbers.
Initially I was offered a choice between 160/30 and 330/50 but was estimated 220+ so it made sense for me to pick the higher package. When the engineer came he was happy with the line and said I should get possibly 250+ but it settled at 220 ish. The wholesale checker is currently down at the minute.
The line has been stable since I’ve had it tbh only these last 3 months or so it’s having these problems. And yeah when using the home hub, I’m getting the stats and same drops. Can’t wrap my head around it other than it being an external issue. Note pic 2, the checker said 220 clean a few days ago then changed to this.
my contract is up shortly and they want to increase pricing and putting me on a lower speed. They’re really pushing it.

yeah when it was installed he actually replaced the master socket and clipped the wire outside the house, joined a new portion of cable (covered in some black kind of sealed box) and fed a new wire into the house for the socket.
Something I have noticed is the wire to the telephone pole from my house is very droopy, Whilst all others connected to the pole going to other houses are taut. Im not sure if it’s always been like this or since we had those terrible winds. Either way BT are saying there’s no line fault and the test socket noise was fine when I checked also.
Could it be possible the cabinet is suddenly experiencing a lot of new connections / bandwidth use with a lot of people working from home lately, using voip network phones, streaming etc? I was told “it was first come first serve and limited availability” when I first signed for g.fast but I thought it was just sales jargon. I have a cabinet 100m away as the crow flies, but the cabinet im being served by now is showing 1km away on the kitz site. (Which would make that like attenuation make sense?)
Using other houses in the street on the availability checker shows 80/20 packages only. I can’t wait for FTTP

1 K is what I estimated distance also, hence the concern regarding high attenuation,
As you said, it was OK, now not and even with BT HH, is still having issues etc ? could be a dry joint, damaged line card etc.
BT Openreach engineer required and just make sure if they visit, the HH is plugged in and it is a windy day

Yeah I’ve had a couple done before. We even went to the cabinet together which is what’s confusing me as because it was the cabinet 100m away from the house that time.
Thanks for all your help and patience by the way. It’s difficult to find any one in the know, it’s beyond the scope of bt customer service and openreach have got back to me with a generic “we won’t deal with you call your isp” as I was expecting.
I can’t even get the answer from them if I should be using SRA, Bitswap, G.INP or G.Vectoring and the bt forums dont help much either.
