Yeah you're right I'm probably being a fool and rushing things. Anyway, so I've reconnected around 1.30 hours after shutting down the network so I'll see over the next few weeks if there are any changes to the IP profile and if DLM wants to do anything.
I've made some improvements - dumped the microfilter and gone to a Mk3 SSFP, and replaced my DSL cable + connections between the modem and router with fresh and tested Cat6.
Edit: I'm running the RT-N66U, not the DSL version. Current setup is VGM8324-->RT-N66U-->Stuff
Also, stats because why not
