Re: Fastpath Weird Wild Stuff
Yes, It is an easy mistake as the entire provision for the DSLAM is deleted and rebuilt and if they don't enter a speed in for the upstream, then it defaults to 8000. Obviously you can't connect at 8000 (even though I have seen some 8Mx8M connections) so it connects at whatever speed it can handle.
You will need to contact your ISP to have it fixed =)
You may try contacting tech support directly, but you may get turned away, but then again maybe not, if you are just reporting that you provisioned incorrectly.

| Ok, thanks!
I emailed my ISP, they have been really good about getting any issues addressed. I just hope Ill get to keep my fastpath. The difference on game servers has been unreal.
Based on what you said, I guess 512 is about as much throughput as I can get, otherwise, wouldn't my speedtest be over 412? I thought being at under 5k feet, I could get more if ever wanted to upgrade |

| It all depends on how the actual lines are run from your nid back to the CO. You may be 5K arial ft, but 15K wire ft. Also, I do not know what specific agreement we have with your ISP. Most customers, we over provision, but your ISP may be different. If you are looking for a higher speed, just ask your ISP if you can get any higher. It may just not be loaded in the system.
