12.Broadband-PLAN
-Customer may choose a plan from 8Mbps to 24Mbps.
-Customers in old 2/4Mbps plan must be migrated to new PLANs
-Maximum download rate depends on line rate, SNR & BB-plan also.
-Upload depends on ADSL/VDSL modem and ANNEX-M mode.
In Annex-M mode we can go upto 2Mbps upload for ADSL modem.
For VDSL modem it can be upto 24Mbps.

13.MTU -Maximum transmission unit.

Normally the values are 1492,1452,1400 or 0
To verify MTU, open the site (https://login.yahoo.com)https://login.yahoo.com
The site will not load if MTU is wrong, if so try different values.
MTU problem mostly exist in Netgear,Belkins,Zyxel modems.

14.TryOtherDSLAM
In some DSLAM http://beta.speedtest.net (http://beta.speedtest.net) will not load fast.
If so check the speed by playing youtube video, if no buffering, speed will be Ok.
If customer not convinced, change the indiactor to some other DSLAM (like sterlite/Huawei etc)
Please note that if speedtest site is full of advertisements, then install Host FILE first.

15.Disable-Apps in Win8/10 -Windows 8 and above installs many apps like weather, news,sports etc
Disable or uninstall these application to avoid interference in browing.
