We've got just the router for you, all it will take is a call to our Customer Options team and they'll trade you a TG582n for a years commitment.
Here is the spec sheet http://www.technicolor.com/en/hi/digital-home/mediaaccess/dsl/wireless/adsl/technicolor-tg582n
It really is a great router, let me know what you think of it if you decide to take one.

The newer TG582N that is now supplied by plusnet seems to be getting very good report's from a few users.
Can anyone using the plusnet supplied TG582N give some feedback here please?
How does it compare to the TG585 v7/v8?

It looks like you can pick on up for £40 shipped so is that worth a years commitment?
And would I have to change my current unlimited plan to one of these new one?

I am a rocking horse on techy matters, so I am not questioning Matt's comment. However tthreseem to be few independent reviews, Those from Amazon FWIW customers seem to give a slightly less favourable ring, Elsewhere in searches folk appear to have port forwarding issues as with the 585 v7/8..

I may be weak minded but not tweak minded, but is the 582N as locked down as 585 v7/8?

you'll have to give our support centre a call and pay £4.99 for P&P and agree to a 12 month contract and they'll arrange that for you.

Quote from: Joanne agree to a 12 month contract
Pardon?
Forgive me for pedantry, but I assume that's not quite what you mean?
I assume that the normal 10 day contract notice period continues to apply as far as the broadband service is concerned, but that if the recipient of the modem does exercise that option to cease the broadband supply within 12 months of receiving the modem, then they are invoiced for it's cost, which I believe is currently around £40.
That's quite a different thing to a 12 month broadband contract & there is already some confusion among users about the difference.
Or have I missed something ...?

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.
