Does the sky router support vdsl vectoring?

[user4879]

Do I need to use a third party router or does sky router already support vdsl vectoring?

Openreach on certain cabinets use g.inp impulse noise protection to increase speeds by cutting down on crosstalk and contention which sky hubs do support.

You will know if your cabinet supports g.inp by posting your hub stats.

The downstream noise margin should be 3db if g.inp is deployed

[user4879]

what should the upload "db" be?

@user4879 

As a rule of thumb 3db higher than downstream

A g.inp line has a 3db noise the upstream would be 6db

A non g.inp line would have a downstream of 6db and upstream of 9db

[user4879]

Yes I am seeing those figures on my downstream and up stream.

3db downstream, 6db upstream.

How long would it take for these speeds to increase? And By how much would you gain?

Those noise margins are pretty much in stone. Any noise downstream noise margin less than 3 db may let errors thru and make your line unstable. So your speed should already be optimised depending on your distance from the cabinet
