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.

If you can access the router settings and it allows you to change to username@plusdsl.net then it'll be fine.

My only problem with it is that it has initially synched about 1Mb/s lower than the HH2, and it lost connection a couple of hours ago while I was out, so at the moment the jury's out.

It's never been connected to BT Broadband, so won't have had the chance to update.
I suspect the date on yours was an April Fool, unless they've changed the way that upgrades work - AIUI they "call home" to BT, which determines if there is a later firmware version and downloads it to the router in the background. Unless things have changed, this can only happen on a BT Total Broadband (residential) connection.

@ Jaggies, I never thought to look on that popular auction site, I did think BT's price rather high (though potentially useful as my exchange is due to offer FTTC in a few months and this would be ready to go presumably.

A couple of quirks on mine - when I connected it around 5pm yesterday, it synched at 15.15Mb/s downstream. My HH2 regularly synched at around 16250Kb/s, with a 14000 IP profile. I resynched the HH3 this morning, and the synch rate went up to 15.61Mbps, which equates to 15985Kbps (according to the BT Speedtester), so I hope another reset tomorrow should bring me back up to my normal rate. Unfortunately, the IP profile has dropped from 14000 to 13000 because of this.
Jury's still out...

Edited to add router stats - the downstream attenuation appears to have improved - was usually 29.5dB with previous routers. It's probably a reporting quirk, or Quantum, or something...

It also does seem to upgrade itself, contrary to what I thought. It still shows I am on "Software version 4.7.5.1.83.8.45 (Type A)" but now shows "Last updated 02/04/11", and the Event Log shows "(21088.400000) cwmp_download: FileName=HUB3A_4.7.5.1.83.8.57_prod.rms, FileType=1, Username=, CommandKey=786633333". I'll have to see if the version number changes when I reboot tomorrow.
Watch this space...
