Post a pic of your line stats, PTCL has recently been reducing the line profile assigned to 8 Mbps connection, instead of configuring the downstream for 9215, they set it to 8191 kbps instead, causing users to get around 700-750 kB/s as opposed to the actual 850 - 900 kB/s that you're supposed to get.

Log into your modem web portal.

Click Device Info > Statistics > xDSL

And then post a screenshot and send it over.

If you don't know how, mention which modem you have so I can tell you how to get into the web portal.

Here's the issue. Your SNR is really low, causing the modem to sync at a lower line profile than specified.

Get your line checked by:
1) Ask the lineman to check for any joints.
2) File a complaint for Bad line parameters.
3) Change the wire from the pole/DP to your house.
4) Get a new splitter if you haven't already.

Once the SNR goes up, your modem should sync fine at the normal rate for an 8 Mbps package.

[draconian]

Hi guys i want to ask if anyone here knows any other medium of contacting ptcl coz i have tried 1218 and ptcl cares but my internet is still down after 2 weeks.I asked for them to install 12mb VDSL and just after the installation my internet stopped working.Its been more than 2 weeks now.Atleast 8mb was working fine.I dont know what to do after like 3 complaints and several visits to the exchange.The broadband guy in our area isnt even attending my call anymore.Help would be much appreciated.

 

[epakistani]

Ptcl damn slow also in hyderabad websites taking forever to load fb videos not playing. Some websites work fine others nevermind. Warid 4g and mobilink 3g working great. Waiting for fiberlink to get installed gonna burn that ptcl router after that.

SNR = Signal to Noise Ratio

Basically the quality of your line.

PTCL isn't configuring lines at 9215 anymore so they've set yours at 8023, so you won't get full 8 Mbps.

Other than that, your line is good.

Try DM'ing PTCLCares on Twitter and get them to increase it to 9215.

He obviously isn't because if he was on beta program, his upstream rate would've been higher.

upstream rate is usually messed up from backend. He is on AnnexM EU-60 submode
