@ Brookzy I brought mine HG612 rev 3B from ebay £19.99 brand new with sealed box. I just unlocked it myself. I will see if the seller still have it and let u know Brookzy

Too late, he bought one off Ebay.

Ah ok, I hope he not ripped off thought.

Ebay's money-back guarantee works well.

If you look at the posts from late last night there is a link to the one he bought for £23 including P&P.

Indeed, should be here tomorrow and then will have some fun unlocking it!

Yes this is one I had the same rev B3 version. Very good modem. Been rock solid stable for 9 days 11 hours now.

Cool. Hopefully the stats will help identify what is causing the lower-than-expected speeds.

Just to clarify my back-tracking on trying to get DLM reset, my modem was syncing at almost exactly 60 mbps (which caused the thinking that the DLM capping of 60 mbps was slowing the line down), but is now syncing at about 56 mbps, with real-world speeds of 52-54 mbps, even after an 08:30am re-sync.

Yep the stats are useful to keep monitor on it. It's can run in the background for 14 days of line stats. My CRC errors is 299 for nine days (not bad at all)

Brookzy - don't forget to fully powered off before changing your new BTO modem (best way unlocked it first before plugged in DSL cable to master socket)

That sounds like DLM has intervened further, rather than less, and has now turned on FEC and interleaving.

The "usual" amount of FEC and interleaving result in extra latencies of 8ms, and utilise (on the face of it) about 15-20% of your available bandwidth.

We'll see what's happened when you get the modem in place...
