I have two combined modem routers:
1) TG672, it a bit long in the tooth now but being a business router it has lots of bell and whistles but only wireless n and one gigabit and 3 fast ethernet ports.
2) Talk Talk super router (HG635), the firmware is a bit buggy but is has 2.4 GHz and 5GHz wireless ac and 4 Gigabit ethernet ports. More importantly it gives me the best sync speed on my poor, mostly aluminium cables, line.

Quote from: tijara33 i must admit that I don't understand why peopie want to spend loads of extra money on a combined router/ modem. I agree that the PN router is fairly average but I use an Asus router with my BT modem & it produces great results.
In my experience reading posts, it's because people want access to their line statistics. It's easier to tell if there is a fault with your line if you know what you're looking at, before you ring PN. It also allows you to provide them with extra information.
Personally I have an unlocked HG612 BT modem which allows me to access statistics.

Thanks for that although that sort of thing is way beyond my capabilities. I guess that I'll have to trust the PN staff in the unlikely event that something goes wrong.

nte5 > modem > Cat5e cabling/powerline/ wireless router
Point is if you know what your doing the separate boxes gives u more flexibility. For the average person it can be an annoyance.
The other thing with all in ones, some haven't been tested by bt for uk vdsl 😐 Also some may skip on cpu power, and that can also cause problems
