It doesn't say which ones, if any, are approved by Openreach so you may be buying one that can't be used.

I already know the Draytek 2850 and Cisco 887VA work.

They probably all work, but it doesn't say if they are approved for use.

Well, the BT Shop sells both the Cisco 887VA and the Draytek 2860 describing them as VDSL2 and VDSL routers respectively.

I wouldn't put it totally past BT to sell equipment incompatible with their own network but I'd hope they don't.
