Please post the full results from a BT Performance Test, as implied by yarwell .

Sorry, I forgot it was a fibre modem.

It isn't!

OK, what is it then and why can't you get stats from it?

Not having your experience of FTTC, I haven't the faintest. Don't do a Batty on me!

It's a VDSL2 modem connected to incoming copper, not a piece of FTTP NTE.

You can't get stats from it because you can't address it. The days of having modem drivers on your computer to tell you are gone.

With an ADSLx router the firmware provides the info, but in this setup all you see is the router firmware, not the modem.

What is in the JDSU that gets to it I have no idea. It may even be getting it from the DSLAM.

Exactly, I never imagined it was constructed of fibre; only that it was used for fibre connections.

But that's the point - it isn't a fibre connection. The fibre ends at the DSLAM. All they have done is put mini-DSLAMs near the PSTN cabinet.

Basically no difference at all technically. The change to VDSL2 is a parallel upgrade, not inherent.

Some users have already replaced their Openreach modem with VDSL2 routers and obtained full stats. IIRC you have been in some of those threads?

TMI. Stop being pedantic! It adds nothing to the original point of helping the OP.

I mistakenly suggested to OP to get his router stats, forgetting that it had a separate modem used for FTTC connections (aka Fibre where the fibre goes up to the cab) and that the modem is not actually connected to the PC whatever drivers are installed on it.

I don't remember participating in any getting of full router stats from VDSL2 routers but perhaps you would care to enlighten me.

Not guilty, yer 'onour.

You must be tired, as normally you would have picked up the light-hearted nature of "It isn't! ". I expected an acknowledgment in the same vein. Instead I got what appeared to be a serious question so tried to answer it.

Anyway - as you say, irrelevant.

I think it fairly likely that, for whatever reason, the OP is on a 40/2Mbps connection, which the BT speed test asked for by yarwell and repeated by me with a more obvious link should prove or disprove. Until the OP returns with that there is nothing to be done.

The main thread on the subject of VDSL2 routers is this one. You don't appear to have visited it. There are a couple of other minor ones around somewhere.

OK Sorry.

As I say, not being familiar with "fibre" I did not see the joke. For the same reason I steer clear of Fibre posts as I am ignorant of it

Here is result from BT speedtest, from the PC downstairs, Win XP, wired to router:
