Hello,

 

I was doing some work on the house, and from back in the day they used to lead telephone cables from the top of the house to the router. So cable goes through my living room. My aproximate walking distance where the copper cables are placed is around 550 meters from the cabinet for my area. I encounter allot of issues where on the connection if i just move a cable for milimeter my SNR changes allot, almost crashing the speed into the downstream being lower than upstream.

So my speed as is is oscilating from 40 to 60 mbit and upstream is constant on 35. My question is, how could I make it more stable taking into the consideration that cabinet to home is copper. 

Whats the chance that bending the cable one degree more could destroy the performance. Most of the cable on picture is waste from the older line. Is it wise to switch cables?
