Welcome to the Kitz forum.  :)

I am not sure if any of our members are familiar with the ZyXEL VMG8825-T50. It's not a device with which I am familiar . . .

A quick Google search turns up an article titled "Getting root on a Zyxel VMG8825-T50 router (https://th0mas.nl/2020/03/26/getting-root-on-a-zyxel-vmg8825-t50-router/)". It might be worthwhile studying that article.

The firmware release notes state "DSL modem code version: A2pvfbH043q / B2pvfbH043q", so I'd say yes it's Broadcom.

You are right - my mistake - sorry.
The T50 version says "DSL code version: V5.12.12.0_20181226", and I don't know whose that is.
