Voyager Hi Midnight - thanks for that info - the BT guy told me much the same when I was upgrading my contract to option 3 back in June, that you need to be almost living on top of the exchange for max speed. Connecting to the master socket would be the best but its at the wrong end of the house, so I have to go via extension.
As I mentioned earlier, I cant remember what port LW is listening on but its a 5 figure number, which is different from when I was running LW 4.9 (I'm on 4.12 x at the mo) and had a Linksys modem instead of this router - the port then was the famous 6346.
BT are running DLM on the line for the next few days, so I'll monitor and see how it goes.
If anyone has any more tips on increasing speed using this router I'd be very grateful.
Many thanks for replies.
