So I've ordered an Zyxel 8324 on eBay for £49.50 new Inc delivery. Now have to wait for my new toy to arrive
It Arrived today and turned out to be a VMG8924-B10A instead of the 8324-10A.
I have set it up, disabled NAT DHCP etc. and it is working as modem only.
Sadly my sync rate has halved from 54Mbps on the TT Super router as modem only to 24.991 on the VMG8924.
I can't believe that is a difference between the two modems so must have a config problem I believe.
My VDSL Stats are:
VDSL Training Status: Showtime
Mode: VDSL2 Annex B
VDSL Profile: Profile 17a
G.Vector: Disable
Traffic Type: PTM Mode

I'm loath to go back to the TT super router yet as I don't want to upset the DLM. have I set this up right? As I say it connects ok but speeds have halved :-(
Any help appreciated.
Regards
Clive
EDIT: Current Firmware Version: 1.00(AAKL.14)C0 flashed by me before setting up.
