Hi All,

 

I know this is in the hardware networking forum but there is really no software networking fourm.

 

I was scrolling through my settings on my Asus DSL-AC68u router thismorning when I noticed a setting (see picture below) called Annex Mode. Currently I have this set to Annex B/J.

There are settings for:

  • Annex A
  • Annex I
  • Annex A/L
  • Annex M
  • Annex A/I/J/L/M
  • Annex B
  • Annex B/J

I would like to know exactly what it is and what it does. Will it increase my speed if I set it to a different mode?

 

I am using VDSL2 by the way and I currently get 28 mbits down and 7 mbits up with no drops.
 

Thanks in advance for any helpful answers
