Fibre Installed - ECI Modem

[link to this post]

Id like to get the stats from this modem but its looking like I need to get some kit to unlock it?

All the pages/info I am getting from Google is 1+ year old.

Is there a better way to unlock it or should I just grab a HG Modem from eBay when I can?

Just grab a HG, there are two variants of the ECI modem and while I can talk to it over the serial and see some data I lost patience to figure out which of the many commands online actually worked.

Getting a HG gets my vote as well, using the latest unlocked firmware I actually sync a little higher than the ECI (not that it looks like it will make a difference with your connection as it looks like you will max out)

Was not actually a question ... it is on the Graph. It was wondering if your choice of ISP is as good as the speedtest!

Hello,

Are openreach not using the HG modems anymore or is it the luck of the draw?

Thanks
