Welcome to the Forums!
Have you managed to get connected with your other router?

As a side note it's a shame that the plusnet router is so basic. I'd bet that many would see an improvement in connection speed just by changing the router over. Even the BT Openreach contractor who did the install commented on the poor performance that they give. I've gained an extra 20mb according to speedtest.net.

Our router is designed to suit most of our customer base. I guess it all depends on what you want from it.
My sync rate is 74Mbps and I use our FTTC router with the BT OpenReach modem and get 72-73Mbps when I'm connected via Ethernet so I've never felt the need to test other routers to see if they'd improve my speed at all. I wonder what the contractor who did your install would say about my setup in that case!
I'm glad that your other router has improved your speed though.
