OK. And in another thread on here, Masque tells us that in a few weeks or so we should have modem mode.

(my underlining) - well at least they're maybe going to do something about it, sometime, when it suits them. I guess their own target date of late May 2011 has been missed. In the meantime, you'll just have to put up with it.

Those who remember the old days of ntl: running the cable system in the UK will no doubt remember the phrase "COMING SOON!"

Coming soon:

Giving customers back the choice of how they want to use their internet connection, something everyone else has been taking for granted for decades.

On the question of user choice, since Stephen has mentioned the BT HomeHub, it is worth pointing out that not only can you use your own router, you can substitute your own VDSL2 modem for BT Infinity.

VM, on the other hand, have been so unwise as to force its users down a lame route. This is what angers me more than the lameness of that wretched SH itself.

Just the firewall + IP flood detection; everything else is default

Could you re-do those using this software

http://download.visualware.com/pub/vr/vrle.exe

It would be easier to compare to the graphs I have put up and seems to be easier to read :)

Thats all good an everything (well, the servers were hardly full :-P )

But a lot of people say the SH adds to latency, even on wired by about 10ms ;-(
