Dear Essenby,

Would you mind dropping me an email on cos I'm making a list of people wanting one and it's difficult to keep track otherwise!

cheers, asbokid

I was going to get a couple of these way back, but i came accross a bt one on flea bay and kinda took it from there, i cant remember what price these were on offer at now but i think i might have lost out somewhere along the line Sad

RE: Cell Pipe Alternatives
A bit of a grave dig and not really suitable for most people, but we've just put a Juniper SRX110B on ours, seems to be working very well - but then for ~£350 you'd hope it would really.

RE: Cell Pipe Alternatives
Probably a bit overkill for the most users as you say but it's good that more VDSL devices are becoming available for those who want to try alternatives.

I think most users are now being provisioned with alternatives to the Cell Pipe nowadays anyway. I know my in-progress order will come with a Zyxel (not sure which model yet) instead of the Cell Pipe/Router combo.

RE: Cell Pipe Alternatives
Out of curiosity, do we know if you can switch the alternatives into bridge mode for the Internet side?
