hi there..
Just installed a 8800nl after a BT upgrade to Infinity and supposedly the modem/router. speedtest.net seems to report that the 8800nl isn't as fast as the replaced HH5..
Am I dreaming?

What firmware version are you on?? Have you upgraded to 2.32d.dh14? found here it has the latest DMT code released by Broadcom

So what are the speeds like when compared with your HH5, have you tested the speeds with LAN connection??

To be candid - still trying speeds
- * What I do see is robustness of the 8800 never dropped
* but do feeL its a bit slower than HH5
* 'other contender ECI TELECOM 0661513 good fast but drops less than HH% - painful to setup

Keep me posted, ps if you keep swapping the modem/router DLM might kick, just a heads up
