Apparently with the 7800N you can - I don't know about this one http://community.plus.net/forum/index.php?topic=94917.0

Edit to first post
Apparently DMT may not  work, there are contradictory reports, but the noise margin can be adjusted via Telnet or the GUI with the latest firmware in Australia

May not be wise to get this Incase It wont support IPV6? Don't know how " Critical " IPV6 Is to be honest, Still under 50 quid? Not bad at all.

Unlike the 7800N it doesn't have gigabit ethernet so not for me..

gigabit ethernet would be overkill for me, my BB varies from less than1Mb/s up to 6Mb/s.

Re: I think I found my next router

How is the router for you guys? Just purchased mine and I was wondering what it is like on low SNRs? Is it as good as the SpeedTouch 585v6?

Re: I think I found my next router

I don't think any of us have purchased one although I could be wrong? I know I didn't bother.

Re: I think I found my next router

I've just bought a 7700N, which is supposedly basically the same thing as the 7800N but with 100M ethernet instead of gigabit, and without the ethernet WAN port.
Have to say so far I am a bit disappointed. It is supposed to be the bee's knees on long lines, but this one is syncing slower at 9db margin than my old DG834Gv3 was at 12db. Any attempt at reducing the margin just leaves it disconnecting every few minutes (see this thread)
My laptop and tablet also won't connect to the wifi. They don't have 'N', and I would have expected the router to recognise this and adjust itself accordingly. I would manually set it to b/g only, but can't see how - the web interface isn't exactly user-friendly.
