Hi,
Locking it to 10/full was what the MCI technician recommended after I opened a
ticket because the line was dropping to 500Kbs up/down. This was a 4Mbit
up/down line burstable to 10. They said it was not possible to increase the
capacity of this line, so I guess they are using their old 10Mbit equipment
for this. Since locking it like they asked speed has been fine, and the cable
is a 2 meter factory made one plugging into the datacenter patch-panel, so I
don't think that's a problem...
Thanks for the tips though.
Richard
