    guys, is it dropping over and over and then you're resetting your routers to get a faster speed again?

    If so....stop. Leave them on 24/7 and allow the slower speed to settle, because it's best, long term

    I'm not sure how BeThere manage the bRAS on their ADSL2+ service Zak. Might not be the same as BT ADSLMax.
    PHP Code:
    $s = new signature();
    $s->sarcasm()->intellect()->font('Courier New')->display();

    Its not. They send as fast as your line can sync, and there's no login account required.

    this is true, it will change after a reconnect if you do so much as change a filter. you can even indirectly set the speed yourself using DMTool, which can be used to change the snr you connect at and therefore synch speed (higher snr = lower synch but more stable connection)
