Why not carry on using your WAG320 in the meanwhile?

That's what I'm doing, just configure port 1 to be the WAN interface, granted you lose a LAN port but it works quite nicely

Provided it is a Gigabyte external WAN input as 80Mb/s is really too fast for 100BaseT ethernet!

Does the HG612 support gigabit? I checked my firewall today and it is syncing at 100 Full.

Thanks

It's 100Mb/s according to the Huawei specification sheet

You can't sync at 100Mbps on FTTC. The highest possible is 80Mbps at the moment.

That would work? I didn't realise that.

I have a hub that I've been using that I could gain the extra port (and more) back from.

Easy to do or not?

Batfink,

Can't thank you enough buddy.

Managed to get it up & running with my existing WAG320, so haven't had to splash the cash.

Just need to setup all the cameras again now

Oooooh, I may have spoken too soo.

Whilst the WAG320 router set up with Ethernet port 1 as WAN is allowing me to connect to the internet, my DOWNLOAD speeds have collapsed from 65-75mb down to 25mb. Upload is still at around 16-17mb. Are there some setting I'm missing maybe?

Somebody else seems to have had the same issue here: http://homecommunity.cisco.com/t5/Cable-and-DSL/WAG3...

A couple of places are suggesting that it's limited to ADSL speeds which would make sense with the speeds I'm seeing?

Thanks.
