The DG834g router was as solid as a rock and I tried several dual band routers as replacements but they all fell short with the exception of the Asus.

Might be worth asking one of the Digicare team (or ^Graham21 ^i]r ) if they still can be had.....

There's a thread here about getting the DSL-N66U working on VDSL. I don't think it was resolved...
More posts here - Looks like a couple of users got it working but the throughput wasn't very good.

Just for the sake of correctness, AVM say 'VDSL' in their spec. but I can assure you all this is VDSL2.
At any given moment in the universe many things happen. Coincidence is a matter of how close these events are in space, time and relationship.
Opinions expressed in forum posts are those of the poster, others may have different views.

Well got it onto net with in few minutes no problem .
Issue is - when on 5ghz wifi im getting around 10mb lower speeds compared to lan connection ....tried every setting you can think of but still same , moved router to another position and tried different firmware ...stil no different .
Says connect at 300mps and testing next to router .
On 2.4ghz on same pc or even a different pc im getting 20mb...tried all settings again still no different and connected at 300mbps .
Hardwired into lan im get a constant 52mb download ...2.4ghz im getting around 32mb download , 5ghz around 42mb ....upload speed on both is same as lan connection .
Soon as go back to my BT Homehub 5 ...wifi speeds are fine , no different to lan connecting when next to router !!
Been back to PC world and got full refund !!!
