I paid 40 quid for the D-Link in the first place! Not happy... really really not happy.

The only conclusion I have been able to draw from the replies to this is that, aside from ADSL being generally poor, there isn't a single ADSL device that anyone can actually recommend without saying it needed manual intervention at some point. Maybe I should buy the most expensive Draytek I can get my hands on.


I now have 3 of those dreadful 2-wire offerings from BT, two have never been used!

I have a zytel that died after 3 years.
And I currently have a cheap as chips billion thing, that just soldiers on, it does not like to resync, or whatever, when BT have issues though, which is not often, twice in the last 5-7 years?.

Mine don't do anything as I plug them into IPCop.
