The stats come straight from the router status

Sounds like you need somebody with test equipment to determine where the noise and the trouble is coming from. It could be from the line from the telco central office or in your house wiring and until you determine which you are beating your head against a brick wall. The only other thing you could do to isolate the problem would be to disconnect all wires into the house at the telco demarcation point and run a cat 3 or 5 wire from there to your DSL modem. It would not have to be a fancy wire run just around the house and through a window. Then get online and look at your stats with everything else disconnected. If the problem is cured it is house wiring if not it's in the lines from the central office. My brain is getting a cramp, at least what little there is left of it. I had an IQ of 71 which puts me in the top 10% in Utah, but no doubt I would be considered an idiot anywhere else except on this forum. Jim Beam goes in brown and comes out red???

Being an ex-Telstra Tech (ducks for cover) i've been avoiding this thread like the plague. You need to be there to find the problem, as it could be a hundered different things, such as corrosion, water in a pit in the street, or an internal problem..... However first thing to do is an Isolation Test.........
That is unplug every phone, fax, modem etc, from all the wall sockets in the house, garage, shed etc, if the noise dissappears then plug them back in one at a time untill the nosie returns, then there's your problem. It could be as simple as a faulty phone or fax. Usually the cheap cordless phone are a noise issue, so start there if you have any.
If that doesn't isolate the problem then call an expert. If you have had a lot of rain recently, then that's where I would go looking next and more than likely it will be in the Telstra Network (pit or pole joint in the street) Good luck..... HTH

Telstra pit dry as a nun's........
It's now been 24 hr's since I removed the 20 odd metre's of excess "two way" line.
Line still has noise but the speed and reliability has increased significantly
I did all the isolation stuff and it made no difference at all.
Whilst removing tiles here there and everywhere I noticed that the telstra line in running with alarm wires, power wires
foxtel cable and even my home theatre leads ffs
When I get the time I am going to try and run it on it's own....god knows there's an abundance of excess wire up there

Cheer's to all who helped me out

That leads me to believe the problem is more than likely outside in the Network and not internal.

At peak usage times she does slow down quiet a bit, so I tend to agree

I spoke to an ADT tech earlier today and he couldn't really add to what you've been told already.
Standard fitment of the alarm is Mode 3 which is blue/white feed to the alarm and then back to the phones via the black/red. But as you've already cut this out then it shouldn't be an issue anymore. He suggested that you can get a splitter box with a built in filter and run from there out to your phones etc.

Me thinks I should have, but being the arse I am and a retired Siemens PBX tech I had to put my $2.44 in. (Siemens is a German Company for you twits). After working for Siemens for a considerable length of time I can see why the Germans lost WWII. They do make good beer.

I thought it was what Whales spat out when they bit the back end out of U-boats

Thats the real reason why they lost the war, it was the highly trained whales mate


Simular too why the great wall of china was built for, to keep out the bloody Rabbits...


Anyway, I am glad I have been of great help here, i will fuk off now..

There's a reason i stayed a fly on the wall, i would have been useful aside from suggesting an isolation test. The alarm going into the equation makes it a bastard of a case to sort out, and something that would have the poor bastards at work banging their head against a wall for months trying to solve (being remote support there is only "so much" that you can do to help the poor people help themselves).
