BT Hub 4 - ADSL details

Is there anyone else out there also on a new BTHub 4 who could tell me where to find the full ADSL connection details?
On my previous  BTHomeHub 2 it used to show the full ADSL details (noise margin, attenuation, etc) in the advanced settings. Can't seem to find it now. Was this info still there on the BTHomeHub 3 ? 

Don't know if it is there on HH3 or HH4 but you get to it on HH2 by going into hub management then Settings > Advance Settings > Broadband > ADSL

  • Hub 4 detailed connection stats??

    Hello
    Got my new hub 4 , all plugged in and working .However I can only get basic connection stats such as upload/download speed and time.
    Where are detailed stats that I had with my hub 3??
    Cheers
    Oliver

    I read the parts of the linked chat thread regarding disabling the noise/attenuation stats, and the reasoning for leaving it out does not make sense at all. Users are not going to lose sleep over extra technical information in the "Advanced" section - they know it's there for techincal support if they need it.
    Heck, you could even completely hide it by not having a clickable link anywhere and only tell people about the HomeHub "special" link on the forums or BT support - then people won't get confused if they click where they shouldn't.
    There are plenty of posts on these forums from people with older HomeHubs where they copy their stat page and people on the forum are able to easily identify what is going wrong (noise margin, etc). Easy for everyone! It is now made much more difficult to dig through logs to find this information now, even for a competent user like myself (I'm a software engineer) who isn't a fan of digging through logs if I can help it.
    I think this really needs to be reconsidered in future firmware versions because - in my opinion - it is insane to completely disable something like this. It certainly wasted a lot of my time looking for it when I expected it to be there.

  • BT Homehub, reboots on its own

    So here is the problem that I have been suffering with for 18+ months. I am on my 3rd Homehub, have replaced all filters and cables each time. Had BT engineer out to look at my line and STILL my homehub reboots all by itself, every few days, regardless of the time of day or whether it being used. I do not notice any issues with my Internet access while the hub is working and when it reboots it soon establishes a connection. This has been an inconvenience up until now when I am working from home more often and I see the my bill for BT each month.
    The hub has this firmware - Software version 8.1.H.J (Type A)
    and this is what I see in the event log
    Any advice most welcome?

  • Very unstable speed

    I bought the BT option 3 and the internet was active on the 17/8 i waited the 10 day settling period for the speed to sort itself out, which it did, but since the 1/9 at around 10pm my speed goes haywire. I use speedtest.net and during, the say, 10 sec test my speed goes up and down like crazy, 1 sec it 2mb then next sec it 4mb then next sec its 1mb and so on. I have phoned but i have been told that there is nothing wrong as the internet works fine during the day and only plays up around 10pm. They did some tests also showing nothin wrong. The trouble is that bt vision wont work unless it has a constant 2mb so thats 2 items of BT that i cant use past 10pm.
    My computer is conected using ethernet cable, the Hub is not restarted alot, theres no noise on the line and i have no idea what is going on. I have had problems with other internets before but never had this.
    Has this happened to anyone else? and does anyone have an idea what might be causing it and a fix for it?
    Many Thanks

  • HH1.5 - can I get faster connection with it?

    Hello everyone
    I have a Home Hub 1.5, and although the conection is stable I would like to get faster download/upload speeds if possible.
    From speedtest.btwholesale.com just now I get the following
    Download Speed (Mbps):  2.21
    Upload Speed (Mbps):  0.33
    Ping Latency (ms): 41.25
    As a test I went to my sisters flat earlier today (she lives in the same block as me), and ran the same test using her Sky broadband connection on my laptop, got these results
    Download Speed (Mbps): 6.27
    Upload Speed (Mbps):  0.82
    Ping Latency (ms): 38.75
    So her download/upload speeds appear to be between 2 and 3 times faster than mine.
    I would welcome any advice on how I can get performance close to what my sister can get on my HH1.5 (if possible), below are the stats from the hub and details of our exchange too - we are less than 1km away. I have spent a bit of time today trying different channels on the hub without success.
    Any questions, please let me know. Welcome any advice you can provide.
    Many Thanks, John

    I then ran speedtest and got the following results
    I have also done the quiet line test, I did not hear any noise on the line.
    A couple of further things to add
     - previous connection time showing only as 6 hours was due to problems getting to homehub home page (i.e manual reset).  Prior to that it had been running for months without re-start, and performance was same as now.
     - The master is not the only phone socket, but the microfilter is plugged directly into the master socket now.
    I do not really understand why the speedtest results are showing max possible speed of 4Mbps when I can go down the hall to my sisters place and get 6.27Mbps. It is a very large building so I imagine there could be multiple lines in and I happen to be on a slow one?
    Welcome any answers, guidance that can be provided.
    Thanks

  • New broadband connection - very slow- please help

    Hi,
    On 3rd of May (last Thur) I got my new phone and broadband installed. My broadband speed is soo slow that I have to buy internet dongle to get back onto proper internet.
    I know about 10 days stabilization period- phoned to India couple of times and being told after 10 days I will get a better normal connection. I just dont belive that. Today is 8th day of 10days waiting and there is no changes at all! I need internet for my uni.
    Please can sameone help me? any advice?
    thank u in advance
    1) I am connected to the master socket. I've tried to connect to test socket but things weren/t going improve.
    2) Tried wireless connection and used ethernet cable. For both connections the broadband is slow.
    3) Done the quiet line test- no faults.
    4)

    also post your full hub stats details shown in this link http://www.btinternet.com/~cbeddoe/others/adslstats.html
    Have you tried connecting to the test socket at the rear of the master socket   
    Have you tried the quiet line test? - dial 17070 option 2 - should hear nothing - best done with a corded phone. if cordless phone you may hear a 'dull hum' which is normal

  • Very slow broadband speed

    Hi - please help
    I had a perfectly good broadband connection speed (around 4mbs) until 18 months ago - since then I have been trying to get it fixed (a problem being that it is at a holiday let cottage that is let outto guests most of the time and so I am only at myself occasionally)
    I have been around the houses with BT India etc and current status is
    1. The download speed is 0.08mbs
    2. I had an engineer around a week ago who checked the line and found a fault - this was fixed and all wiring checked, new master socket etc and he declared it fine and capable of around 5.5 mbs. However no change to the 0.08mbs. He reset the line and said improvement should start in 4 hours. 
    3. Since then, no movement at all - still 0.08mbs
    4.After several callls to bt the answer I am getting appears to be that the profile is now reset at 3mbs but for some reason they are not able to "see" my bt home hub - I think the implication is that there is somewhere some sort of "crossed line" whereby the profile they are resetting is different to the one that actually connects to my home hub
    5. The promised to send out an engineer to fix this but they have now failed to turn up on two occasions and I have run out of time for staying here as I have guests arriving tomorrow
    Is there anything that anyone can suggest as to how I can get this sorted out without physically having an engineer to visit (as clearly the problem is not in the house but somewhere in the connection between the house and bt?

  • Exchange capping

    Hi all,
    I'm seeking advice on how I can persuade BT to remove or modify the capped download speed that has been set on the 'card' at my exchange.  Or at least who I should approach for a detailed explanation of why it has been set so low.  The cap applies to all users of the exchange.
    A brief summary:
    I use BT as my supplier and use their BT broadband option 1 . I have recently had speed issues and engineers have visited my property twice in the last month.  I am situated 3.3 miles from the (rural) exchange and have been informed that there is one 'card' at the exchange with a potential to supply broadband to 64 customers - currently there are 16, and that number is unlikely to change significantly. 
    The engineers who have visited my property have informed me that the line from the exchange to my property is capable of handling speeds easily up to 3Mb but it appears the 'card' has been capped at c.500Kb.  My logic is that as there are so few broadband users on the card that to lift this cap to 1 or 2 Mb should be possible.  However,  I have not been able to get anyone at BT to be able to do this.  I have been informed that I will need to wait until the exchange is upgraded.
    I was aware when I took on BT broadband (early 2006) that I would not be able to receive very high speeds - the actual download speed was never specified.  However, it appears to me that the cap has been set unnecessarily low.  The speed issues appear to have been rectified for the time being and I am downloading at c. 0.45 Mb average.
    I have tried to run www.speedtester.bt.com but only get 'page not found',  and 'further diagnostics' on http://speedtest.btwholesale.com/ always returns 'test error' as a result,  so cannot supply stats from there. However my line status stats from my hub are detailed below.
    Any help would be appreciated in this matter.
    Many thanks
    Paul

  • Router keeps kicking us off and requires constant ...

    Hi,
    I have read a number of similar threads that didn't lead anywhere but was hoping there may be some more recent help.
    We've had BT service for over a year and it's been ok. Over the past couple of months the wireless connection on of our several computers has dropped and cannot be reinitiated. Specifically, our network is still available to select in the Windows list of wireless networks, but attempting to connect just times out. Consistent with this the router itself shows that broadband and wireless are both on. Nevertheless, the only way of getting back on is powering turning the router off and on again.
    I thought the problem was with my wireless adapter, but after installing new drivers and finding this problem on two other laptops, it is clearly the router. I have tried setting it to a different channel but this has made no difference. One thing that exacerbates the issue is trying to stream or download multiple things at once, which was reported in another post.
    I've seen that people are asked to post their line stats as a matter of course, so please find this information below even though I'm sure it has nothing to do with the issue (which seems to be that the router disconnects us and won't let us back on, but maintains ADSL and Wireless connectivity).
    Many thanks in advance for your help

    Hi halc,
    1) Just to make sure it's not the connection between the hub and the exchange can you please click "more details" on the hubs adsl connection stats. This will show FEC, HEC, CRC and repost.
    2) also Can you please run a BT speed test http://speedtester.bt.com (not beta version) still to make sure your connection is ok.
    3) If your devices are not N wireless rated then it might be an idea changing the Wireless interface type to b/g only.
    4) If you have interferance on the wifi channel then manualy change it to another channel.
    5) If a wireless problem then try Keith's help guide here: Wireless connection problems
    cheers,
    James
    I'm no expert, so please correct me if I'm wrong

  • Cannot connect to internet unless phone is off the...

    We have our phone and hub connected to the phone line through an ADSL filter.
    We were unable to connect to the internet but miraculously got online every time I picked up the phone to call BT so I didn't complete the call.
    It now transpires that the only way to remain connected to the internet is to leave the phone off the hook.
    How do I fix this?  I've already tried two different ADSL filters but the problem remains.

  • Slow connection - disconnecting

    Hi, I have broadband Option 3 from few years, usually download speed 8Gb, but from few weeks my speed is only 2Gb. In last week my hub was disconnecting all the time (about 3-4 time per hour). I have restarted it and checked all connections and this week was only 3 time disconneted. I now that to best results I need to be connected 24/7  3-5 days but I can't as hub is resetting on it's own (once a 1-2 days at the moment).
    My speed test and ADSL details is:

  • Any further steps before I contact the Mods?

    The usual problem has arisen of slow internet speeds.
    My connection is a wired connection; usually sees around 1.8 Mbps, two computers.  Nothing has changed about our house set-up, and speeds started dropping very noticeably on Sunday.  We have a BT Home Hub 2.  As an intuitive reading, if I can stream a YouTube video at 480p without running into buffering trouble, it's working as normal.  At present, it can only stream at 144p.
    So far I've:
    - checked our speed with the BT Speedtester.
    Exchange to Router is 1.8Mbps
    Router to Device is 0.76 Mbps (not sure if this is normal or not, as I don't run speed tests when everything's fine).
    - done a 17070 line test: can't hear any noise on the line.
    - no unknown devices on the network
    - reset the Hub today; no improvement to speeds.
    - tested speed on the other computer; similar issues with streaming on that computer.
    - tried removing filters and other phones.
    - run a few tracerts; I'm seeing very high pings (>100, sometimes ranged up to 300 or higher) to the first hop after my router (esr11.miltonkeynes4.broadband.bt.net); see attached picture.
    I live roughly 4km from our exchange, so the slightly high line attenuation in the attached ADSL details below is to be expected, and is what we normally have.
    So, if anyone can spot anything I haven't or suggest I try anything else, please do comment.  Otherwise, I assume my next step should be sending in a report to the mods and seeing if they can help?

    you have a connection speed currently of 1.8mb but the high noise margin of 12 is not helping - normal noise margin is 6db.  your connection time is only <3hrs is that because of the manual resets?  manual resets actually make your conenction worse not better so a stable connection and no more resets will help
    can you run btspeedtester and when first test completes then run diagnostic test and post results.
    are you conencted to the test or master socket?  do you have other sockets in other rooms?

  • Broadband speed down to 0.13 Mb/s

    For the past few days, our internet connection has been intermittently dropping down from 1.5 Mb/s to 0.13 Mb/s, with our upload speed staying at 0.36 Mb/s. This same problem occurred last July, which was solved when I posted the router's details on this forum.

  • I'm so far from my local exchange...

    Hi... so i'm sooo far from my exchange ( telephone exchange ), 2 miles, infact.
    In away, my local exchange is Southall but fibre optic got installed their and I checked the broadband checker and it said I still can't get it, only Total Broadband only. Then I checked a building right next to the exchange, WAHAY! They get 17.5 mbps just from adsl and get fibre... Lucky.
    I live 2 miles away and get only 3.5 mbps, ( WHICH IS NOTHING, I KNOW ) and I can't get fibre optic but I'm too far from the exchange.
    So basically, I will always have slow broadband and no fibre unless a new telephone exchange is built or if i Move house. Depressing. Help.

    fibre comes to your local green street cabinet then copper to your home as now if your exchange has been upgraded the it is a matter of waiting for your cabinet to be upgraded it does not need a new exchange to be built
