BktSnrSet
speed up your ADSL
SNR is the signal/noise ratio of an DSL line, as the SNR is high the DSL line is good (http://iltecnicoinformatico.maniaradio.it/?p=4343459), DSL routers hooked the line to a value of SNR that guarantees the stability of the link is often at the expense of download speed. From the testing is still possible to lower the SNR to synchronize the carrier at a higher value, so having more download bandwidth, without sacrificing stability, the important thing is finding the right compromise.
With BktSnrSet you can change the value of SNR in routers that use chipsets Broadcom 63xx series, in the table below report some models that use this chipset.
>>> CHIPSET <<< | >>> ROUTER <<< |
BCM 6328 | Billion 7700(N) |
BCM 6338 | D-Link DSL-2540B, DSL-2542B |
BCM 6348 | D-Link DSL-2640B, Netgear DG834GT, DG834v4, DG834Gv4, DG834PN, DGN2000, Thomson/Speedtouch ST585 |
BCM 6358 | D-Link DSL-2740B, Netgear DG834N, DGN2200, Billion 7800(N) |
ATTENTION: the lower the noise margin SNR, the less stable the router is likely to be, and if you go too far the router may not be able to make a connection at all., fortunately, to solve the problem, simply set a higher SNR or power OFF/ON the router (with each power on or reboot the router syncs with the default SNR).
USE THE PROGRAM:
- Enable telnet to your router (for Netgear you must enable debug mode by typing in the browser http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/setup.cgi?todo=debug where xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx is the router IP address)
- Under settings make sure that the commands and prompts to match those of your router (for Netgear ADSL command is adslcfg)
- Enter IP address and telnet port (default 23) of the router
- Enter login and password to log on as administrator (for Netgear leave blank)
- Click on Connect
- Scroll the slider and select the desired SNR
- Click on Set SNR
- Allow sufficient time for the DSL synchronization, in the monitor panel verify the value of the carrier
In [Command] you can write a custom command (see table below) be sent to the router.
>>> COMMAND <<< | >>> DESCRIPTION <<< |
adsl info --show | Displays a brief set of router stats |
adsl info --stats | Displays a full set of router stats including error rates over various periods |
adsl info --SNR | Displays the current SNR for each ADSL tone |
adsl info --Bits | Displays the bitloading for each ADSL tone |
help | Gives a list of the available commands, one of those commands with no parameters gives a synopsis of the usage of that command |
*On this table we will use 'adsl', but Netgear users will need to substitute 'adslctl'.
