Whats the best policy durin DLM with 02?

[lynnwood]

when dlm starts with o2 do you think its best to just leave router plugged into test scoket until complete or just leave it in my filtered adsl faceplate?

also i have heard that if u force the router everyday to reset during dlm you get more speeds this correct or another tips i cud use to get most out of my line?

My router is situation 6" away from master socket and plugs in direct via ethernet cable

We dont get DLM

BUT
for the first 10 days i recommend put the router in the master and leave it on and dont touch it

[lynnwood]

so dont restart it to boost speeds you mean?

also i take it i get a text when the testing is done correct?

finally can you usually ring and ask for increase as i hear they air on the conservative side?

My contract expires with sky in december and was thinking of coming over to o2 premium but would like a few questions answering first if you can help.

I'm a little confused. You might join O2 in December but you want to know fine detail about what you need to do under DLM and whether you can force or request a different result? Looking at your posts in other threads, all your questions seem to be about how you might get around problems you haven't got and probably never will have.

There's nothing like forward planning

[lynnwood]

fail to prepare and all that..lol

shouldn't bother you now should it if i plan ahead?

That's some planning ahead...four months' worth??

A lot can change in that time and any advice you're given now may not actually be useful then.

But, I would suggest not restarting the router - my own understanding is that this could be seen as a problem with the line and actually reduce the final speed you get.

But I could be wrong. It's been known more than once.
