Received the box this lunch time and linked up quite easily. QSS light is now flashing after about 50 mins but but with no detrimental effect on my speed as far as I can see.
Just wait for the wonga now hey?

Just to highlight we have no input on the actual testing, but based on personally having done 'customer surveys' before that are paid, then it is usually a slow process getting paid, and in this case would suspect they may wait until usable data has been produced.

Otherwise pay you all after a week, and you all switch the kit off.

Some mobile usage research schemes have used a retention payment system, to keep people using the system rather than a one off payment.

I dunno why People are thinking of flashing with stock firmware, at the moment they pay you £25 plus £5 for each survey questioner you complete, the router is worth £40, get the £25 do a couple of surveys then when complete maybe flash it, ya never know they may give ya the router to replace the superhub [censored] (on VM) after complete plus ya get £25 too, ya never know ya may get 4 surveys!

Maybe because they aren't getting replies to emails and the test device is testing when the connection is in use - something they say it won't do.

Also that testing seems to consume several GB per throw.

Do you know how/where I can see how much GB is being used during a test?
It does appear to be testing an awful lot of times during a hour.

Hopefully someone using it will answer that. I don't have one and don't know how it is connected.

Mine seems to be using up to about two Mbytes per day.

Oops - I meant Gbytes of course!

That's 1.5 times my allowance, on Plusnet. As long as it's not a 31-day month, in which case it exceeds it.
