Comment Comment by user5994461 A view from the the debugging tools since you asked https://thehftguy.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/01/screenshot_...I don't think there is anything too fancy compared to a DSLAM. It's just that DSLAM are low-frequency long-range by design.Numbers for nerds, on top of my head:* ADSL1 is 1Mhz 8Mbps (2 kilometer)* ADSL2 is 2Mhz 20Mbps (1 kilometer)* VSDL1 is 15Mhz 150Mbps (less than 1 kilometer)* Gigabit Ethernet is 100Mhz over four pairs (100 meters). It either works or it doesn't.* The G.hn device here is up to 200 MHz. It automatically detects what can be done on the medium. parent user5994461 9 months ago
I don't think there is anything too fancy compared to a DSLAM. It's just that DSLAM are low-frequency long-range by design.
Numbers for nerds, on top of my head:
* ADSL1 is 1Mhz 8Mbps (2 kilometer)
* ADSL2 is 2Mhz 20Mbps (1 kilometer)
* VSDL1 is 15Mhz 150Mbps (less than 1 kilometer)
* Gigabit Ethernet is 100Mhz over four pairs (100 meters). It either works or it doesn't.
* The G.hn device here is up to 200 MHz. It automatically detects what can be done on the medium.
