Best settings for 7800DXL and BT Broadband (ADSL)
Posted: Wed Jun 12, 2013 12:07 pm
Hi,
I'm setting up my new 7800DXL with BT Broadband. I live in a very rural area, so BT (or Satellite) are my only options. I've just had a new line installed at my new build property. I've been using a 3G USB modem with the Billion, and that has been great whilst waiting for the BT line to arrive.
I've been searching for the best settings for ADSL (the max speed I can theoretically get is 8Mbit, at the moment I get 3.8Mbit down) on the Billion. There seems to be conflicting information on a few things on the web - like what username and password to use and if any other settings make a difference.
Could some kind person also using BT confirm I have the correct settings in place? I've not tried SNR tweaks yet as I'm still in the 10 day 'training' period for my new line. I can get a connection with the following settings, so I'm assuming they are correct - but just want to be sure.
DSL settings:
Username: bthomehub@btbroadband.com
Password: <empty>
Connection Type PPPOA
VPI/VCI 0/38
Encapsulation vcmux
Any suggestions (outside of SNR tweaks) for any other boxes I should tick? PhyR is enabled already.
Thanks and regards,
JonathanN
