ASUS DSL-AC88U Setup

[Avinitlarge]

Good Afternoon People 

Ive got an ASUS DSL-AC88U on the way to replace my ASUS DSL-AC55U. The 55 was a bit of a pain to setup and has been very flaky.

does anyone have the settings they could share for the 88??

thanks

OK thanks, do you have a TalkTalk router that you can test with?

From the link, it looks like the FTTC

Do you know which master socket you have - Your guide to main phone sockets - TalkTalk Help & Support

Chris

[Avinitlarge]

Just one socket which is where the router and phone plug in. We did have 3 but BT removed the others

[Chris-TalkTalk]

OK thanks, do you just have the one telephone socket or do you also have one or more extension sockets?

Chris

[Avinitlarge]

Nope, no noise on the phone line

[Chris-TalkTalk]

OK thanks 

[Avinitlarge]

We’ve not used the landline for years, I’ll check it later if I can find the phone

[Chris-TalkTalk]

Hi Avinitlarge,

Are you experiencing any problems with your telephone service, any noise on the line?

Chris

I’m not sure, it’s behind my desk

Hello,

Ok thanks for confirming. I've run a test on the line which hasn't detected a fault, however I can see re-connections on the line which can affect the sync speed. Does your main socket have a test socket please?

Thanks

[Avinitlarge]

I can’t remember but last year I was getting download speeds on the 40’s, occasionally it would reach 50

Morning,

I'm sorry to hear this. Were you provided with a predicted speed range for the line when you signed up?

Thanks

[Avinitlarge]

Yep, it’s all working as it should, speeds are the same as what TalkTalk have quoted. It’s a shame Fibre 65 is only 27.6 Mb/s download and 5.06 Mb/s upload yet 10 houses down, it’s double the speed 😡

[KeithRan]

That should be fine - are you getting the download speed you were expecting?

[Avinitlarge]

Thanks, that worked.

When I set DSL modulation to G.fast, I don’t get a connection, it only works if DSL modulation is set to Auto Sync up, I’m not sure if this is an issue or not.

It will be something like this Router setting
