OK first things what firmware version do you have?
If it is a recent one then PN will be in the setup wizard
Just run the wizard (quick setup) and select xDSL
then select VDSL_Plusnet
enter your user name & password (username@plusdsl.net)
That should be it.
If you aren't on the latest firmware then do the same but also set up the VPI to 101

the router has VDSL_plusnet already on it I've tried through quick setup and the setting you've suggested and I get nothing just says DSL Disconnected but if it try running my internet on ADSL its absolutly fine.
