So that firmware you mentioned should i still get it or stick to the official zyxel firmware? I'm confused sorry 

Stick with the official releases to start with nfxcr3w. TT (non business) is IPoE so doesnt need any special firmware to get full 1500 byte MTU.

If you want stats monitoring and have a PC thats on all the time or a trusty raspberry pi then running DSLStats is the best option.

If at some point in the future you want to mess with testing stats monitoring directly on the device itself for fun then you can take a look at the modified firmwares.

Will do thank you Johnson well i've ordered it now so will be with me by tomorrow.

Anything else im missing?

No, reading through your list you are "good to go". And follow johnson's advice about which firmware image to use. He should know!

Thanks guys any issues i come across I'll let you guys know tomorrow thank you for all the help really appreciate it

I think you will enjoy the Johnson new firmware, for the stats server feature, ignore the MTU thing. So I recommend giving it a try as there’s no downside and I’ve found it rock-solid, just a very pleasing enhancement with the extra functionality.

Is that all it is the servers stats feature? cuase i normally just check every now and then with DSLStats

Right finally got it all set up in Bridge Mode got one question though between the wireless signal and the globe icon on the the vmg1312-b10a is it suppose to be orange i have connection now. just wondering? Thanks guys

[roseway]

Yes, that's normal. Because the modem is in bridge mode it has no knowledge of the PPP connection with the ISP (which is done in the router). So it shows sync but not a full internet connection.

Thank you Rose im syncing at max right now got a bit of interleaving though does this look ok?

Stats looking very good now. You have a superb line.

. . . between the wireless signal and the globe icon on the the vmg1312-b10a . . .

As I can never remember which LED is which, I had to go and look at my own VMG1312-B10A and now I see it is a representation of an 8P8C modular socket, with properties as explained by Roseway.

I agree with Weaver's assessment . . . looking at that snapshot for less than one hour's synchronisation, the circuit looks to be very good.

[Weaver]

Thanks to Roseway for that tip about the LEDs. I didn’t know that. I’ve never seen them on my own modems because I haven’t made it into the office to have a look. That might confuse me and my wife if taking a look at them in future. I can get her to show me the LEDs using her phone,  camera or iPad tho.

thank you when i had the hg612 on for 5 days DLM didn't really budge with the upstream Interleave so not sure what thats all about but i have gained a extra 4mb on the max attenuation like i said it would. The FEC Errors seem to be less than the HG612 too must be a bonus that.

A long and happy married life together.
