Issues DNxHD & CC2014. V Slow RENDER and Do I remove CC if 2014 now on system?

My Prem Pro CC suddenly v slow to render and export and exporting OUT OF SYNC (H264 etc)
Upgraded to CC2014 yesterday still v slow, constant rendering all timeline for small things like small Jpegs
Old Premier Pro CC still showing on system? Even though upgraded to 2014 Thought 2014 was just upgrade not reinstall. Do I remove CC?
I shot Avid Codec DNxHD 185x (ninja via C100), imported as DNxHD and also tested AVCHD - Been trying to export as h264 1920x1080 various configs tried...out of sync by few frames but think Video slow than audio but not across timeline.
1. DO I remove CC? - I though it was an upgrade not a reinstall
2. How can I improve awful and sudden slow render. I have cleared cache in adobe and PC. System WIN 7 - i7 3770 3,4ghz, 14Gb RAM, GeForce GTX 570 card. This must be software issue? Thanks
3. How to export in synce, timeline is in sync. Have exported VID and AUDIO sepearte and re assembled - didnt work. Have deleted render files and exported - didnt work
V frustrating/
Any help out there??
Thanks
Lorne

CC2014 is a completely separate version And just like in the past old versions are left in place As a fallback option. For your technical isssues with Premiere ask in their forum.

Extremely slow render and export from FCP

I have a sequence of about 37 minutes in FCP (Studio 2) that i'm trying to export using compressor and its estimating 13 and a half hours. I have tried just a quicktime movie export but its estimating just as long. I changed the compressor settings to a single pass 6.9bit rate. I checked the computer stats at the processor is 84% idle with 5.54gb of unused RAM, surely it should not take that long!
Anyone any suggestions?
I'm using a Mac Pro 2 x 2.8ghz Quad-Core Xeon with 8GBRAM

It will take that long if you are going to h.264.
And if you are starting with something like HDV.
What are you starting with and going to?

Major Issues with iMail, VERY slow sending and receiving messages - any advice or fixes?

It's a painful experience these days using iMail - my messages aren downloading ramdomly and not often; my sent mail takes forever to send; and when I'm filing messages in my folders they don't always get saved in those folders and often times remain in my inbox. Worst of all, I can never be 100% certain that my messgages actually sent, and need to constantly check my sent messages folder on my other devices. Any help/fixes/suggestions greatly appreciated!

Only the name changed
In previous versions of OS X the "All Mail" folder appeared under GMail, this is the same folder with a name change. It is a standard GMail function. You can turn it off (On the GMail website, but it is not recommended) but that only suppresses the view, GMail is still doing it, you just don't see it until you run out of storage. Deleted mesages are not actually deleted, just removed from the inbox etc.

I tried to shut down my Mail application and it does not shut down. Now they system is hung and I am not able to shut down the computer. I keeps telling me to close down mail first but, is was requested only won't happen. Can't open mail either. Help.

The system seems to be hung. Mail app will not close and therefore, I am not able to shut down my system. Also, I am not able to open Mail either. Anyone able to help me fix this issue?

Thanks this closed mail.
Can you answer another question. Cant send out mail from Mail only receive and read mail, Could this be something to do with my set-up as think Husband may have fiddles with some options not knowing what he was doing?
Should I de install Mail and re install Mail as think settings may have been changed by accident, would that ensure mail works

Having been infected by a Lsas blaster which affected Trusteer Rapport and Firefox I removed Firefox which I now regret. If I download Firefox again would my favourites still be there?

I would like to ask also software could I use to remove stuff that has been cached and clean up my registry and other areas. My computer is much slower than it was. I did download AVG...would that slow the computer down. I also use Microsoft Essentials.
Any comments would be greatly appreciated.
Eldur.

If you selected the option to remove all Firefox data and customizations when you un-installed Firefox, that data is gone. If not, when you install Firefox again it should pickup and use that data.

Dreamweaver CS3 (9) maxed CPU slow performance and FTP issues.

Dreamweaver CS3 (9) maxed CPU slow performance and FTP
issues.
Never mind...I found it.
Of course I have all the firewall, worm, scanning, phishing
filtering, full time protect, and everything else turned off when I
am working on a remote/testing site however I found the Symantec
antivirus email scan being enabled (doesn't it just interact with
my email program?) was getting in the way of DW9 ftp operations,
causing some lagging that was putting DW9 into an unstable mode
during and immediately after (10 seconds) ftp operations.
The CPU still spikes to 99% during ftp functions but DW9
works even though it's likely taxed to the max but when I turn off
email scan DW9 returned to a functioning state during ftp and
remote file view. Whatever it takes huh?
PS: email scanning only never effected DW8.02

Thanks for the response. I managed to Google the 'nobody' account and found the explanation.
As you say, I assumed the 'syslogd' process had to do with system logs. I did check the console and couldn't find anything of particular interest in the logs.
I'll continue to monitor but if anyone has any further suggestions please post.
One thing that might also have an impact... my available drive space is now down to less than 5gb (runs anywhere between 1gb and 5gb free depending on what I'm running). I know this causes problems for Parallels as it keeps moaning at me, but would it cause any problems with OSX?
Thanks again,

I am experiencing very slow import and backing up issues.

I am experiencing very slow import and backing up catalog on exiting Lightroom. This is a very recent issue. I use RAW files.

The type of files you are importing will have an effect on the speed of the import process. Larger files, like raw sensor files, are normally much larger than JPG files.
But if this is something new, the slowness, and you are using the same camera with the same size files as previously then it's not just the file size.
What type of computer and what operating system are you using.

Slow Render with High-End System?

Im currently working on a (in my opinion) high-end Windows system for video editing. The system is about 2 years old and has cost a fortune in that time. So Im expecting significantly better speed. So heres my problem:
Im working primarly in Premiere Pro and After Effects. All the media I work with are as a video imported Jpeg Sequences. Often I have multiple Sequences (up to 7 or 8) overlayed and tweaked with Dissolves and plugins like Twixtor. I also use the Adobe Dynamic Link from After Effects to Premiere and vice versa. All the footage is currently in 1080p but in future I will want to render 4K. Im aware that a 4K workflow is probably a pain in the *** so Im surely going to edit offline with 1080p. However I cant get any real-time playback with all my sequences. I ALWAYS have to render a preview to watch my edits. I dont know if Im just having too high expectations for my system, but Im kinda sure there has to be an issue for this lack of performance. Maybe the Dynamic Link is slowing my system down?

Thank you very much in advance for your help and I apologize for any grammatical mistakes since english is not my main language.

Valentin,
I have always called a raid10 a solution for the paranoid in a hurry. It takes 4 drives to give you the capacity and performance of two disks, but gives you security by the mirroring.
Before going into your specific situation, allow me to tell something about volumes and drives, because they can be confusing and at the same time they are very important for optimal performance of a system.
Single disk, not partitioned is 1 disk = 1 volume to the OS
Single disk, partitioned is 1 disk = multiple volumes (not a good idea BTW)
Multiple disks in one raid array is Many disks = 1 volume
Multiple disks in one raid array with partitions is Many disks = multiple volumes (not a good idea either)
Each volume has a distinct drive letter for access.
Partitioning is a thing of the past and should not be used at all on modern systems.
You have to think about volumes more than about number of disks. In my current system I have 27 different physical disks but only 4 volumes. In the old one I have 17 disks and 5 volumes.
Now that we are clear what we are talking about, volumes with distinct drive letters, we can address your situation.
You have TWO volumes, C: (single disk) and D: (4 disks in raid10). Spreading the load across two volumes is more demanding and gives slower performance than using more volume, unless one or more volumes are very fast, as I tried to explain in a previous reply (remember Isenfluh/Sulwald?). If you add a SSD as you intend, you have increased the number of volumes to 3, which will definitely help performance, because SSD's are faster than conventional disks, the pagefile can be stored on the SSD, so all your performance will go up.
Compare your setup with mine with rough estimated figures:
Volume
Valentin
Harm
Transfer rate Valentin
Tranfer rate Harm
C:
1 HDD
1 SSD
125 MB/s
450 MB/s
D:
4x Raid10
1 SSD
250 MB/s
450 MB/s
E:
NA
21x Raid30
NA
2,700 MB/s
F:
NA
1 HDD
NA
150 MB/s
These figures are indicative, but do show where the major differences are. In my experience disk setup is overlooked quite often, but has a huge impact on a system's responsiveness. It is the weakest (slowest) link in the chain, afterall and with your workflow, doubly so.
But in your specific case there is something else, and that is your disappointing hardware MPE score. 100 seconds is extremely slow, even for a Quadro 4000. I would be quite normal to see a score around 8 - 9 seconds on such a system, well maybe around 12 - 13 seconds with your ECC memory, but 100 is way too slow. Some background services or processes are interfering with the hand-over from memory-GPU-VRAM-GPU-memory. This can be caused by a myriad of things, but a good starting point would be the BlackViper list of services to set to manual or disabled and taking a closer look at the processes running with Process Explorer. There should normally be less than 50 processes running.
Hope this helps.

Why is my Macbook pro so slow? And what can I do to fix this?

Greetings, I got my MacBook pro one and a half a year ago. For some reason, the last 4 months the computer has started to slow down. I get issues such as.
     - Beach ball appearing to often, even for simple commands such as open folder. etc.
     - Video files skipping frames. (any video file on any program. Even if its a buffer video such as youtube or Netflix).
     - Programs such as Photshop, Final Cut Pro etc, takes forever to render and work properly.
     - Web Browser taking forever to close a tab.
I am currently running a OS X V.10.8.5
2.3 GHz Intel Core i7
4GB 1600 MHz DDR3
353.2GB Freespace out of 499.25.
Could any one explain why would a mac slow down? (not a speculation, just why would it slow down like this. Especially the beach ball uninvited appearence).
I looked up the problem on the net, I get way to many differant answears that lead to getting scam programs, and or other 3rd party programs. (I did not download any of them)
I hope some of you understand the problem and have an answear to this. I tried to ask apple support, but they ask for money. I have a feeling that mac slow down forcing you to buy support intentionally (this is just a thought).
I avoid downloading uppdates from apple, because most people I know who uppdate macs always end up with a slow computer. + Last time I tried to uppdate the mac, I got a gray screen that blocked me from using the computer at all. To avoid this problem again, uppdating is not an option.
Pardon my English, it is not my native tounge.
Thank you for reading.

1. This procedure is a diagnostic test. It changes nothing, for better or worse, and therefore will not, in itself, solve the problem.
2. If you don't already have a current backup, back up all data before doing anything else. The backup is necessary on general principle, not because of anything in the test procedure. Backup is always a must, and when you're having any kind of trouble with the computer, you may be at higher than usual risk of losing data, whether you follow these instructions or not.
There are ways to back up a computer that isn't fully functional. Ask if you need guidance.
3. Below are instructions to run a UNIX shell script, a type of program. All it does is to collect information about the state of the computer. That information goes nowhere unless you choose to share it. However, you should be cautious about running any kind of program (not just a shell script) on the advice of a stranger. If you have doubts, search this site for other discussions in which this procedure has been followed without any report of ill effects. If you can't satisfy yourself that the instructions are safe, don't follow them. Ask for other options.
Here's a summary of what you need to do, if you choose to proceed:
☞ Copy a line of text in this window to the Clipboard.
☞ Paste into the window of another application.
☞ Wait for the test to run. It usually takes a few minutes.
☞ Paste the results, which will have been copied automatically, back into a reply on this page.
The sequence is: copy, paste, wait, paste again. You don't need to copy a second time. Details follow.
4. You may have started the computer in "safe" mode. Preferably, these steps should be taken in “normal” mode, under the conditions in which the problem is reproduced. If the system is now in safe mode and works well enough in normal mode to run the test, restart as usual. If you can only test in safe mode, do that.
5. If you have more than one user, and the one affected by the problem is not an administrator, then please run the test twice: once while logged in as the affected user, and once as an administrator. The results may be different. The user that is created automatically on a new computer when you start it for the first time is an administrator. If you can't log in as an administrator, test as the affected user. Most personal Macs have only one user, and in that case this section doesn’t apply. Don't log in as root.
6. The script is a single long line, all of which must be selected. You can accomplish this easily by triple-clicking anywhere in the line. The whole line will highlight, though you may not see all of it in the browser window, and you can then copy it. If you try to select the line by dragging across the part you can see, you won't get all of it.
Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it:

Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
7. Launch the built-in Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
Click anywhere in the Terminal window and paste by pressing command-V. The text you pasted should vanish immediately. If it doesn't, press the return key.
8. If you see an error message in the Terminal window such as "syntax error," enter
exec bash
and press return. Then paste the script again.
9. If you're logged in as an administrator, you'll be prompted for your login password. Nothing will be displayed when you type it. You will not see the usual dots in place of typed characters. Make sure caps lock is off. Type carefully and then press return. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you make three failed attempts to enter the password, the test will run anyway, but it will produce less information. In most cases, the difference is not important. If you don't know the password, or if you prefer not to enter it, press the key combination control-C or just press return three times at the password prompt. Again, the script will still run.
If you're not logged in as an administrator, you won't be prompted for a password. The test will still run. It just won't do anything that requires administrator privileges.
10. The test may take a few minutes to run, depending on how many files you have and the speed of the computer. A computer that's abnormally slow may take longer to run the test. While it's running, there will be nothing in the Terminal window and no indication of progress. Wait for the line
[Process completed]
to appear. If you don't see it within half an hour or so, the test probably won't complete in a reasonable time. In that case, close the Terminal window and report the results. No harm will be done.
11. When the test is complete, quit Terminal. The results will have been copied to the Clipboard automatically. They are not shown in the Terminal window. Please don't copy anything from there. All you have to do is start a reply to this comment and then paste by pressing command-V again.
At or near the top of the results, there will be a line that begins with "System Version." If you don't see that, but instead see a mass of gibberish, you didn't wait for the "Process completed" message to appear in the Terminal window. Please wait for it and try again.
If any private information, such as your name or email address, appears in the results, anonymize it before posting. Usually that won't be necessary.
12. When you post the results, you might see the message, "You have included content in your post that is not permitted." It means that the forum software has misidentified something in the post as a violation of the rules. If that happens, please post the test results on Pastebin, then post a link here to the page you created.

DSLR workflow for ideal render and export

I recently completed my first 5 minute project in Premiere Pro CS6 with great results. The source material is a Canon 7D, and I'm working with unconverted native files. Unfortunately, as the project had color-correction with Magic Bullet looks, filters like sharpening, and layers to "blur" certain elements on-screen, the initial compressed h264 export took nearly 7 hours.
A bit of research led me to realize I was better off exporting a "master" and converting outside of Premiere Pro. So, what would be the best way to proceed?
Should I render my timeline and then choose export with "match sequence settings" and "use previews"? Should I not pre-render and instead export only with "match sequence settings"? If I do pre-render and use previews, will the resulting quality be the same as if I render while exporting?
Or is there another way? Could I create preview files with ProRes and export to ProRes?
Thanks for helping out a thrilled PP convert.

A little primer on Preview files...(btw I think they are great when used as they are intended)
Preview files are caches of raw frames [with effects applied to them] that are encoded into the Native Editing format (eg DV, HDC, MPEG-Intra).
It's a little known fact that ANY Export format can be made into an editing format. When you make a new Sequence you just have to pop over to the Custom Tab to change to that video format. In general this isn't a good idea though. Why? Because most Export formats are not good Digital Intermediates (DI). By that I mean that repeatedly compressing and decompressing damages/degrades the footage or they are slow to decode and encode.
So, what format to choose? Formats like Avid DNxHD and Apple ProRes are great editing modes. They don't degrade over multiple generations very much and are relatively low on CPU power to decode and encode. There are lossless DI's out there too like UtLossless (which is free). At the other extreme are codecs that don't fair well to being used as a DI - like H.264/AVC. They are simply too CPU hungry for the task.
Don't misunderstand me - editing source AVC footage is fine because decode is waaaay easier than encode. It's just not practical because of the encode time.
So why use Preview files at all?
IF your effects (like Magic Bullet or Motion Stabilizer) takes a LONG time you only have to do the computation once. Work in the highest resolution you'll be using (eg 1920x1080p). After you have the preview files "rendered" Premiere Pro will use then instead in that section and you'll have nice smoooooooth editing.
You then are free to Export your final video to whatever format you want in whatever size you want. And because you chose a DI that isn't hard on the CPU to decode you pick up a TON of time vs having Magic Bullet recalculate the same thing over and over again for each output format/size/datarate. - Just make sure you check the "Use Previews" button otherwise they will be ignored.
Level 200 tips:
IF, and this is a big IF, you happen to be exporting your final video at the same
    FRAME SIZE
    FRAME RATE
    COMPRESSION SETTINGS THAT MATCH THE EDITING MODE
Then, you can get an extra Encode time boost for Exporters that support "Smart Rendering". Smart Rendering is when all the above conditions are true and the compression scheme supports being able to COPY the preview frame instead of de-compressing it and then re-compressing it.
Basically there is little to no chance that's gonna happen unless your final output is a Digital Intermediate format to then go onto some other post-production step.
So... choose a good Editing Mode that doesn't lose quality when encoded (during the preview render) then decoded (during the early phase of Exporting each frame) to make the raw uncompressed frame that is Encoded into your final output format (eg F4V, AVC for Bluray, YouTube, Vimeo etc).

Solution for Slow Open and Save As Dialogs under 10.4.4

I don't know how many others out there may be experiencing this, but...
I noticed that -- after updating to 10.4.4 -- I started getting really long delays when accessing Open and Save As file dialogs -- I mean, sometimes it would take 5 to 15 seconds for the dialog to appear!
I did a lot of troubleshooting, and finally hit upon the solution a couple of nights ago:
It's the Desktop iDisk!
Going into the .Mac Preference Pane and turning off "iDisk Syncing" has totally eliminated the slowdown.
I think it has something to do with DiskMirrorAgent, since that has frozen on me a couple of times and prevented logoff until I force-quit it.
'Hope this helps.

Hi Matt,
One can always manually mount the iDisk when needed, and it still syncs, albeit in real time, and kind of herky-jerky.
As for the slowdown when multiple items are mounted, I believe I'm describing a different issue, related to DiskMirrorAgent. If and when you get this slowdown (with desktop iDisk syncing enabled), check Activity Monitor, and you'll see DiskMirrrorAgent sucking up most of the CPU time for the time it takes before the dialog appears. My record time was about 25 seconds.
As for slow Open and Save As dialogs when multiple items are mounted: I customarily have several external FireWire drives mounted, and often a couple of CDs and/or DVDs (I produce a radio program, and have several optical drives), and I have had no Open or Save As dialog slowdowns since at least 10.3.x, maybe earlier.
Even when the dialog opens to a directory on a CD that has spun down, the opening time on an Open or Save As dialog is nearly instantaneous for me, suggesting that Mac OS X 10.4.x is doing a good job of caching the data.
But I hear you about the "old days," when it used to take forever to get a dialog to appear, just because a CD was mounted! Maddening!

Windows 8.1 slow restart and logons.

Hey,
We are experiencing slow logons and system restarts with Windows 8.1 on a Surface Pro 3 device.
When the issue occurs the event id 7011 if logged consistently in the event log with a number of service timeouts.
Have read that Microsoft recommends increasing the time out period via a registry key to 60000 milliseconds but this does not resolve the issue.
The issue occurs randomly but when is occurs the events are logged in the system log.
All patches and firmware are up to date and device is domain joined.
The services startup options are set correctly.
Hitting a brick wall with this one so any assistance appreciated.
The DNS Client
service failed to start due to the following error:
The service did not
respond to the start or control request in a timely fashion.
A timeout (30000
milliseconds) was reached while waiting for a transaction response from the
Dnscache service.
A timeout (30000
milliseconds) was reached while waiting for a transaction response from the

Hi,
For this problem, firstly, I would like to suggest you make Clean boot to check if this problem caused by 3rd program or service startup with system caused this problem.
Clean boot: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/929135
If problem persists, it would be better to use boot trace tool to caputer Windows startup trace log.
You can refer to the contents of the link below to collect the boot trace log, then upload these log file log to your Sharing Space and post the download link here.

Time Machine very slow, Safari and iTunes have to Force Quit

Anyone else having these issues after Mavericks "upgrade"?
Time Machine is so slow as to be ineffective of useless, symtoms:
     - takes hours to prepare and run a backup of a couple of GB to the Time Capsule, anything up to 20 hrs!
     - constantly revising the amount to be backed up, up and down
     - seems to freeze periodically ad stick part way through with no change to the backed amount for hours, then speeds up, freezes, speeds up
     - time remaining estimate alternates between "casculating, estimates of hours and seconds! wildly inaccurate
              - it's been saying 5 seconds remaining for the last 2 hrs.
     - have done two backup verifications to check for Time Capsule problems - none
     - only two successful backups achieved since the Maverisks "upgrade" due to the time it takes
     - both Time Capsule and Airport Express have the latest firmware and software
Coincident with this, both Safari and iTunes (the latest Mavericks compatible versions) both freeze when trying to quit them - have to force quit. Both experience random slow downs and with the spinning rainbow beachball.
Looks like a Mavericks problem with the Wifi and Timemachine?
Using a late 2008 aluminium unibody Macbook with 8GB of RAM and a 256GB SSD, 100Gb of free space o the SSD. Connecting via Wifi to Time Capsule (2TB, with 1.8TB free) and Airport Express (both n Wifi).

Check whether there is a crash report:
Go to your Applications Folder and open your Utilities Folder. Open the application Console.
In the left-hand column, click on Crash Reporter.
Click on the small triangle under Crash Reporter in the l/h column and they will all be listed.
Scroll down to the latest Safari report and click on it.
Now click on the r/h column (which now only shows THAT crash report and then Command-a to copy it all.
Come back here and Command-v it to post it here!

Very slow broadband and connection keeps dropping

Hello, we have been BT customers since August 2013, after previously being Freeola customers for many years. We live in a very rural area, at the end of the exchange so we are never going to get amazingly fast broadband, we are estimated 1MB.
Previously using Speedtest.net at the beginning of the year we were getting 0.9Mbps, then in May our internet dropped and we couldn't get a proper connection or speed. We contacted Freeola who after doing some tests, said that we had a copper line failure and to contact BT. We did this and the copper line failure issue was fixed, an openreach engineer tested the line and we assumed all was fine. But we were still getting very slow speeds and the connection kept dropping. So we decided to switch to BT in August, we have put up with the slow speeds and dropping connection for 3 months hoping in vain that once we got a stable line the speed would increase and we would be back to were we expected to be.
When we are using the internet, we very often get "Your connection has been reset" errors within our browsers.
This has not happened, so I have decided to come on to this forum in the hope that we can solve this issue before my hair gets any greyer. We have a BT Home Hub 4 so we have not got all the stats that previous HH had available.
Also as we are in a rural area our telephone connection is through overhead cables and as said previously we are at the end of the exchange.
Please see below for the information that I have been able to get:
Home hub stats:
17:28:52, 28 Oct. ( 68.040000) DSL noise margin: 12.00 dB upstream, 9.50 dB downstream

As said previously before the copper line failure we were regularly getting download speeds of 0.9mbps.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Solved!

Hi jacoma,
Sorry to hear that your having issues with your BT Retail services.
You will either be on the ADSLMax (upto 8mbps) service or if your exchange has been BTw 21cn upgraded you maybe on the ADSL2/2+ (upto 12/20mbps) service depending on your line quality and length.
However these upto speeds may not be the speeds you will get as ADSL broadband connections are very dependent on the distance from your property to the exchange and the quality of your line. The further away you are from your local exchange the slower your broadband speed will be.
To enable the community to help you please see the advice below:
Please see Keith's help guide here: Helping forum members to help you, it will go through some checks that are needed for us to help you.
1) Are you in the TEST socket? if not can you please connect to the test socket and repeat steps 2, 3 and 4.
All the below performed in TEST Socket:
2) is there any noise on your line. dial 17070 option2 ,called quite line test, from landline phone. should be silent but slight hum normal on cordless phone.
If there is any noise on your line such as crackling, distictive noise when the phone is connected to the TEST socket and doing the quiet line test then you need to report a line fault to BT Retail by dailling 151. Once the crackling or disticive noise has gone then your broadband should slowly recover.
3) please post adsl line statistics
4) Can you please run a BT speed test (including IP Profile) http://speedtest.btwholesale.com (not beta version)[Best done with a wired, Ethernet, connection] After Quick Test is done you need to click "Further Diagnostics" to get IP Profile.
ADSL Line Statistic Help:
If you have a BT Home Hub like the one below...
Then:
1) Go to http://192.168.1.254 or http://bthomehub.home
2) click Settings
3) Click Advanced Settings
4) Click Broadband
5) Click Connection or sometimes called ADSL (see picture Below)
The direct Address is http://bthomehub.home/index.cgi?active_page=9116 (for bthomehub3.A firmware ending in 1.3)
or http://bthomehub.home/index.cgi?active_page=9118 (for bthomehub3.A firmware ending in 94.1.11)
