John - WPS is probably switched on, might be worth doing a factory reset, switch it on and hold the pin in for 7 seconds at the back. If it loses the FTTC config I'll send you the firmware over to reflash.

Then it stopped responding. Following a restart of the router (I didn't touch the modem) I'm back on.
Is it possible that all the messing around - turning routers and modems on and off etc - has affected the profile?

Sync Status In Sync
Downstream Speed 39.999 Mbps
Upstream Speed 9.999001 Mbps
So don't think it's affected the speed by switching routers and rebooting. Let's see if the_norris gets chance to try his router out, they're both exactly the same, we flashed them with the same firmware then go back to Thomson on Monday and see what they say.

I'm hoping the speed will pick up as it settles in - and hopefully it will stop dropping the connection as well

When it does work, it seems to work well. Although speeds seemed slow for an N router (could that have been because my desk top was operating in g?)
Let me know if I can try anything else

Quote from: bluewhale hmm. not convinced by the overheads argument
802.11G has a raw bit rate of 54mbps, however there's a lot of overheads - in fact the figure you're seeing is actually pretty good and near the top of what's theoretically possible for a mixed mode 802.11b/g TCP data connection. See http://www.atheros.com/whitepapers/atheros_range_whitepaper.pdf for the theory behind this.
