<br>
Was wondering on ideas for testing ADSL modem's in office before sending out? Whether its pre-configured before drop-shipping, testing a possible faulty etc etc.<br>
<br>
The obvious solution is to have a phone line with service installed ready for testing - which we actually have. One Telstra DSLAM one Optus DSLAM to test both networks.<br>
<br>
The real problem is - NBNCo has rolled out in the area, and these services are due to disconnect early-mid 2015. Very annoying as we service plenty of areas requiring ADSL Support - and with FTTN rolling out in NBN, and our area being FTTP, we will also need a way to support and test VDSL stuff as well.<br>
<br>
With that my only solution to think of to date is getting an extremely small DSLAM that supports both modes and maybe some big coils to emulate line length (lol). I havent found many 'cheap' DSLAMs (cheap enough to sit around for non full-time use and no $$ return).<br>
<br>
Are there any other solutions to this problem I'm not considering?<br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>
Joe<br>
