Now I have a puzzle! Having dusted off my old HG612 (3B) and updated the firmware, is there any advantage to upgrade to a VMG1312-B10A?! Decisions, Decisions!  ??? ???

Decisions, Decisions!  ??? ???

Only you can decide.  :D

If it helps, this techno-kitteh currently possesses the following devices --
  • Huawei HG610
  • Huawei HG612
  • Huawei HG622
  • ZyXEL VMG1312-B10A
  • ZyXEL VMG1312-B10D
All are capable of use on G.992.1 / G.992.3 / G.992.5 / G.993.2 based services. My device of choice is the ZyXEL VMG1312-B10A.

I found the 1312-B10A syncs higher on my line than the HG612 (3B) although depends on your line. If the HG612 is syncing at max speed then it is rather academic.

So I think it's fair to say that if you need a modem to use in bridge mode then you could go with either a ZyXEL VMG1312-B10A or a Billion 8800NL (not the R2)

Billion 8800nl r1 is v.good, if you can find one. Using mine in bridge mode, into opnsense for firewall and looped back to use the wifi on the 8800nl too, there's not many you can do that with.
