Yes, i just checked and it's 3B
It's no problem rebooting it once every 2 or 3 months to, i just wondered why it might be dropping to half speed at 40.

There is a known problem with Infinity reducing the line speed. To see if this is what's affecting you, try rebooting the router instead.

Pass, I have always held a pet theory that ANY BB kit is always worth powering off once a month or so, just to remind all the kit involved what it is supposed to be doing ! smile

Left to its own devices, my old 8128 service would wander down to about 5meg, with no apparent loss of sync (yes I know this ain't poss). A reboot once every couple of weeks cured it. Still do the same with my FTTC service.

Aw come on Bob, you know I don't do technical. It's all dark ju-ju this stuff.

I'm still recovering from the whole non-world ending Mayan thing. smile
