Does anyone know if Plusnet is or will be offering an alternate router/all-in-one to the Technicolor TG582n in the foreseeable future?
I often experience random reboots, UPnP port mapping issues and other intermittent niggles so am looking to replace the router with a more suitable one.
I do have a lot of devices connected to the router which could explain the stability issues so if the TG582n is sticking around then I'll probably look at getting a Draytek - maybe the VDSL all in one modem/router model... although they are quite pricey.

Quote I will buy a decent one which doesn't require the BT modem
What's wrong with the BT modem? My fibre works perfectly well with my old Asus Rt-N56U connected to my ECI modem. My speeds are right at the top end of what is predicted some 500 meters from my cab.

I don't want a second box cluttering things up
I want to monitor what my line is doing with respect to speed and errors
Re the ECL modem - that doesn't even fully support G.INP nor vectoring which, as my cab is supplied via BDUK it may have it

After all, marketing seems to be a big driver now at Plusnet and BT, Sky, Talk-Talk etc. all make a big thing about how good their 'super-mega router-hub device' is compared to the competition, this would be the next natural marketing coup for Plusnet to blow the competition away.
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.

PN looks like its heading for the EL Cheepo end of the market so there is no need to showcase a decent modem/router
