Managed to get the HG612 setup this morning using the Fritz purely as a router.
My attainable rate has shot up to near maximum, can you knowledgable folk cast an eye over the stats from the modem to see why I'm not syncing any higher than I was with the Fritz!Box?
Modem is right near the NTE5 connected to the test socket with a short 30cm cable, so household wiring is of no consideration.
Cheers.
