Subject: [bristol] BT Profiling Slowed down my connection - OT
Message-ID: <54CCCAC5.205@hemmings.eclipse.co.uk>
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf-8; format=flowed
Hi,
I have had some problems recently and would appreciate any info on
"profiling".
Background:
A month ago I fitted a new WiFi Router which I normally switch off at
night AND when not using it.
My normal download speed is about 5.2Mb/s and my synced speed of 5.9 but
last week I noticed the download was down to 3.2!
After doing the normal checks filter change/removing everything attached
and then testing from the "Line In" jack, Eclipse confirmed it was the
exchange that had throttled it back and I should leave it on 24/7.
After a couple of days my sync speed went up to 7.2 BUT I was still
getting 3.2 downloads!!
Eclipse then said that was correct as there was still a limit on the
line and they would request a "profile reset" but I should wait 24
hours for it to "learn" the line and increase the speed.
My download speed has now increased to about 6.5 which is as good as I
have ever had, but I was wondering if others had experience/knowledge
of profiling, in particular, is it really necessary to have the router
on 24/7 or is it OK just to switch it off a night?
Also, why was there a need to reset my profile to increase download
speeds if I had the router on 24/7 !?
I was also informed that BT's new exchange S/W cannot tell the
difference between a faulty line and switching off the router, so if
its switched on and off a few times during the day, download speeds
will reduce.
Regards

Eclipse have (characteristically) given you good info.
If you want the gory details, start with <http://www.kitz.co.uk/adsl/DLM_system.htm> then read the rest of that site.

Hi,
I have been playing with a pi "Noir Camera", it works OK on remote
desktop with rdp but am having problems with sshing and getting apt-get
to install programs.
As this is not my normal distro, could someone help with how to resolve
the errors?:
The following packages will be REMOVED:
ssh
0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 1 to remove and 88 not upgraded.
After this operation, 29.7 kB disk space will be freed.
Do you want to continue [Y/n]? y
dpkg: warning: files list file for package 'lxinput' missing; assuming
package has no files currently installed
dpkg: warning: files list file for package 'python-minimal' missing;
assuming package has no files currently installed
dpkg: unrecoverable fatal error, aborting:
files list file for package 'poppler-utils' is missing final newline
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (2)
pi@raspberrypi ~ $
Thanks

Have you tried -f on apt-get?
Is 'poppler-utils' installed or not?

No, but managed to sort it out.

It was, I ended up removing the relevant files in
"/var/lib/dpkg/info/" then re-installing them with apt-get install XXXXX
--reinstall
Also did a "clean" "autoremove" and "update" for good measure but maybe
that was not necessary. All now OK have motion/camera working as well
as ssh.
