Re: (ASCEND) Net Medic and My Max 4K



I've read up just a little bit on what LQM is (Line Quality Monitor), but
I'm not seeing why it would improve performance across a connection.  I
didn't do much research on this, so if I'm missing something completely
obvious, fergive me.  If you wouldn't mind going into a little bit of
detail regarding LQM for me, that'd be great.  Any info appreciated in
advance.
