I saw this on Draytek's forum, but bottled out.Indeed, even more advanced features can be controlled through the console. A max ADSL downstream speed can be set, for example. This is handy for BT ADSLMax enabled exchanges, where sometimes poor SNR at higher downstream speeds causes line stability issues. The ADSL line we use trains to around 1.75MBps, but is limited elsewhere by the ISP to 1Mbps. Setting the max ADSL downstream speed to 1.2Mbps gave us a 5dB increase in the SNR, up to 30dB.
ANy clues as to how it's done guys? I'm not familiar with their command lines.
I'm getting drop out again

Now it should be a case of typing 'adsl maxdnrate xxx' where xxx is a number. I'm not sure quite how the number translates to downstream rate, but there are a few presets ranging from '8M' to '3M' or '0' for auto.
Whenever you change this setting, the ADSL subsystem will automatically reset and retrain.
Just a quickie ...
Will it remember that maxdnrate setting when the router is turned off/on ?

Thanks for that info. Mines been fairly unstable as its auto training to about 2.5Mbps (crappy line) with an SNR margin of about 7-8 but I've now set it to adsl maxdnrate 72 for 2Mbps and its settled at about 11-12 SNR so hopefully this should prove a lot more stable. Thanks.
