I switched from Sky to Plusnet just over a week ago, on Unlimited Fibre Extra. I'd heard Plusnet's router wasn't too great and I was concerned also that it might arrive days after the change over, the post being a bit disrupted recently. So I bought a Draytek Vigor 130 modem - I also had a Draytek Vigor 2910 VG router I'd been given a while back so I wanted to use that as well. The modem connected immediately and everything worked ok, except that I got a speed of around 25 Mbs, nowhere near the minimum of 60 promised. I waited a week in case it improved- and then prepared to complain. I connected Plusnet's equipment, as I expected that would be the first thing they would ask - and got the promised speed right away. Ok, so no problem now. But I imagine there is some setting on the Draytek equipment that needs changing if I am to use them - though I can't see a compelling reason why I would. I am curious, however, and if anyone is interested enough to reply knowledgeably, that would be great. But if no one can be bothered, that would be entirely understandable.
