Question 2MBps connection, get 100KBps DL speed

Hi guys
I need your help!!!
I have a H500C+ net connection for quiet some time now but I had got it disconnected for some time and now I am back to BSNL. Honestly, I dont remember what its speed was when I had it previously, but now from when it has resumed it does not go beyond 100 KBps for utorrent/IDM. I even downloaded file from microsoft website using IDM (100KBps) and default firefox (60KBps)
Now this seems 1 part of the issue, the other major issue is this


dont tell anyone
this is not it I have checked with mum/chennai server n it goes upto 38, regularly , and speedtest is not the only testing site i checked it out with (this one using NY server is quiet low actually).
I dont find any solution to this problem, done all tweeks in utorrent, changed dns. What is the use of being able to get such high speeds when one is not able to use them??? another advantage is the exchange is very much near my house, as a matter of fact the telephone pole is in front ov my house
please help me guys
any settings that i need to do??? I would be indebted
Thanks cheers

100 translates to a speed between 768-1mbps,
60 translated to a speed around 512kbps.

Forget the speed test results. If you are able to access the net at a decent speed, thats all you need friend. I guess.

Look what Downlod Speed shows in your ADSL GUI web Page.
It should be minium 2048Kbps or high. If this speed shows to you below then 2048Kbps then you dont get the full 2Mbps speed. Try to change the Modulation to G.Dmt.

To enter modem config page, type 192.168.1.1 in the browser. ID and password will be admin.

you are not alone...even i have the same problem. I think BSNL is wantedly capping all combo plan speeds to 1 MBPS these days....2 MBPS for combo plans would be too good to be true.

i think all of us missing something... like... other than unlimited and fixed speed for home plans bsnl says the speed will be upto a certain speed... say 2 mbps... and with a fixed minimum speed of say 256 kbps... so anything between is what we are paying for. i'm on fixed 256 kbps and never got desired constant 32 kBps download speed. always 10%-15% behind even with the xp bandwidth tweak. its ok with me coz i always love to watch, listen or use whatever i download. dont know wheather is it possible to experience every bit of data downloaded using most of the free time even at 100 kBps speed?

@guesswhomsa1

I changed all the IP addresses as mentioned in the link provided by you...
And voila I have arrived at the config page of the modem after i try the new IP addresses...
Thank you soo much for the help guys. Appreciate it rep's are too little a thing for you guys. It was much more than that
May be the IP's that were present previously were screwed
Now i have got the SNR values
SNR Up/Down : 24.6dB/41.5dB
Attenuation Up/Down : 4.0dB/25.0dB respectively.I have referred to this awesome post ---> http://www.indiabroadband.net/broadb...they-mean.html (SNR Margin and Line Attenuation - What do they mean?) and everything seems to be excellent

but the shocking config that i saw was this
Bandwidth Up/Down(Kbit/sec) : 509/1019
Now who the hell did that
Is there any way to remove this cap???

additional info
In Advanced>ADSL config page ADSL modulation is ADSL2+, if this might help

Lightbulb ADSL to GMT

Try Changing ADSL2+ to G.dmt then save and reboot the router and also your Line Attenuation is a bit high.

I fear this is another bits/bytes cases: if you could get 2Mbytes download, you'd have some 16Mbits of connectivity.

If BSNL is reporting that you get 9+ Mbits to New York and 38 to Mumbai when you have a 2 - or even 8Mbits plan, something is downright wrong: ADSL supports a maximum of 24Mbits (although other types of DSL support faster, I don't think BSNL is offering such things yet).

For all we know they could be trying to make fools of us by saying "well, it goes this fast on speedtest.net, but if you're trying to download anything actually useful from, for example, mirror.aarnet.edu.au or ubuntu.com then that might come at 0.5Mbits.

If I were you, I would try downloading a large file from a couple of different servers in different regions of the world: India, UK/Europe and USA, and clocking the average speed. This would be more reliable, rather than looking at the connection of your modem (which is most likely the speed at which it is connected to the exchange) or at speedtest.net.

Your modem show to you 1019Kbps downlod speed. So you canot cross the 1Mbps untile your modem shows to you Minium 2048Kbps or higher then it. Try to change the value to G.Dmt. If the speed shows to you same then you have to contact with the DE of your exchange. Nothing you can do from your side untile the settings change in the DSLAM for the downlod speed.

The problem is WHAT is the use even if i get such high values on speedtest website when i dont even get the values promised???
As far as I can decipher this the main problem lies with the bandwidth
look at the statistics here
Product Name

Huawei MT841
Physical Address

00:0F:A3:74:98:87
Software Release

V100R001C01B021SP01
DSP Version

D.57.2.17
Release Date

Jul 19 2005


ADSL

Statistics
ADSL State

Show Time
Data Path

Interleave
Operation Mode

G.Dmt
Bandwidth Up/Down(Kbit/sec)

512/1024
SNR Up/Down

25 dB /37.5 dB
CRC Up/Down

0/0
FEC Up/Down

0/0
HEC Up/Down

0/0
Attenuation Up/Down

4.0 dB /11.0 dB


After I changed to G.dmt some values have changed
But my main concern is this

Bandwidth Up/Down(Kbit/sec)

512/1024

I fear this is the culprit that is restricting my download speed and keeping it to 1024Kbps (or)100-110KBps
It seems to be putting a cap on my download speed.
If by any way possible i can change this value to any desired value or even 512/2048 for that matter I would be more than happy *sigh* *praying*
Will changing my modem with a new one do any good???

Even after changing to G.dmt it does not cross 1024. Something IS fishy. The people responsible seem to be restricting the download speed
