I am in the BST territory, and have the DSL Extreme. My stats are pretty
good - http://www.outpimp.com/?x=481501624  Should I be ok?

Hi everyone, this is my question:
Is there any way to check line quality (e.g. Attenuation, SNR) from this modem
using the telnet interface?!?
The modem uses a Globespan chipset, these are the options I get using help

I have three sites:
two has PPPoE connection, with DSL modem and variable IP
one has RFC1483 LLC routed, with DSL router and fixed IP
each one has IPCOP v1.4.5, and every machine is directly pingable; (the

Has anyone seen any webpages on this?
Or have you tried different modems on the same line?

The best down speed I was getting from DSLExtreme was 681 kbps. I
contacted their technical support who, in turn, contacted Verizon, my
telephone company.
Verizon sent out a technician who found troubles in both their lines

You want to see evidence of pathetic Verizon OnLine Tech Support?
Check out these actual conversations which took place over the past two
months.  Bottom line: Stay away from Verizon.....
I made the switch to Comcast.....should have done this LONG ago!

Is there anyplace I can get info on setting up a DSL service with
SBC/Yahoo without using their Proprietary CD?? I don't want to put all

I'm a heavy downloader and I seem to wear out my line every 6 months.
Then Qwest has to give me a new line, everything is fine for another
six months, and then it happens all over again because I wore it out.
Is this scenario plausible?

Received a new Efficient Speedstream 5100b modem/router as part of an
SBC offering -- fired it up last night & it was working just fine.
Turned off my computers, left the modem on (all lights on the modem
indicated that it was well - green).

I have had qwest DSL for 2 months now and I cant figure out what is
wrong with it. It is only a little faster than MSN dial up. I can only
get 26-28kbps on downloads. I have an actiontec modem conected to my
Dell 2300 computer via an ethernet cable. On the ethernet card are two

I have been looking for all of kinds of access provided by ADSL vendors for their customers.
The only ones I know are
PPPoE   (with dynamic/static IP address)
PPPoA   (with dynamic/static IP address)

I have Qwest standalone 1.5 Down / 864 Up DSL service at a store location
that is near the distance limit from the CO.  My connection is marginal, so
my Cisco 678 is retraining quite frequently.
Qwest has concluded that the best solution is to slow down the line.
