Morning everyone, I've had to cancel my order as the modem is one of the older ones, and can't run the new firmware that supports G.INP. is anyone selling a modem or can anyone point me in the right direction? My budget is around £80. Cheers!

Think I may have just solved the issue...

Was walking to shop and an Engineer was working on a cab, its a combined (AIO) cab and asked him what number cab this was. He replied 9, thats the cab I'm connected to  :lol:

I had no idea that was even a fibre cab, but a quick look at the different cabinets on this site its 100% one of those.

Am I correct thinking these are supplied by Huawei?

I've purchased a HG612. So will unlock it as soon as it arrives.

Just a thought, would the slightly lower sync speed and higher pings indicate G.INP being active on the line and the ECI modem being incompatible?

It could do. G.INP should be available on all Huawei cabinets now.

Just a note on this, I know this may sound silly to most people, but I thought because I'm in the same village, all cabs were ECI. I knew I would be connected (most likely) connected to a different cab but I had no idea it could be a Huawei. Time will tell anyway I hope after updating the HG612, and G.INP being enabled. All should be good. I'll update once its arrived and connected.

I was a little cheesed off today, the seller sent me a ECI modem out by mistake  >:(

So I've ordered a HH5 Type B, I hope to replace my ASUS router and have a aio unit, I need a new RJ11 cable and currently have a Cat6 RJ45 to RJ11 (50cm) running to the modem. I find this cable to be quite firm and would like something a little more flexible. So I'm looking at a Cat5e RJ45 to RJ11 (1m) cable. Would I see any difference in using this it terms of sync and performance or would it be more less the same?

Regards,
Josh

Can't get a break me at the min. Sellers messing me around, late delivery's, it goes on. Anyway HH5B should be here Monday now I hope and also he's sending me the HG612 so can always use that as a spare if I need modem stats or just as a backup. That left me with the two ECI modems I've already sold one and the other is on eBay, also sold the Hub One already, only wanted £25 for a quick sale all others are £35 plus on there.

If anyone wants the ECI modem I only want £15 with free shipping? Let me know its the /r model.

Cheers,

Josh
