Sympatico DSL (SpeedStream 5200) modem test. October 15, 2006

The first test was made with Globalinx DTA box connected but no call was made while testing. As it can be seen the actual download and upload speeds are less than a minimum required (90Kbit/s) speed for VoIP connection.

The second test was made with Globalinx DTA box connected and the local (Montreal) call was made while testing was in progress. The result for download speed was even worst than in previous test while it was small improvement on upload speed (probably busted by DTA box). The reception was inconsistent, wile the other party was able to hear quite well.

The third test was made after calling to Sympatico and trying to give the a sh..... After about 15-25 minutes they boosted the connection speed (it means if we wouldn't call them, they will provide 60kbit/s service for the price of high-speed) the test was repeated and results seems to be acceptable. The test below demonstrates the connection download and upload speed with DTA box connected, but no call was making during the test.

Same test as the previous one except the local (Montreal) call was made while the test was in process. The voice and reception was good, no complains.
