No word of a lie, I have a Bye Bye Standby device connected to the modem power supply so I can easily turn the power off/on when required.

Re: 50Mb areas

Had mine since last Friday and i can't say I've had much grief with it so far speeds are pretty reliable around 5.9mb/s certainly no hassles using Usenet here with speeds its been rock solid (me touches wood).
