Does anyone know of any consumer grade kit that can switch modes? Years ago we had some sponsorship from (I think)/zxyel who provided two experimental vdsl boxes which we  trenched a pair over a festival site and had one modem as master and one as CPE and it worked a treat. Looking to do something this summer and the man at the company that helped us out is no longer about. So I'm thinking what hardware chipsets allow mode switching ? Anyone know of consumer grade gear I can "repurpose" ?

Cheers

A Planet VC-230N may be switched from CPE to CO mode.

How about making use of a pair of Planet VC-201A (or other make) media converters?
