Back in the day when ADSL2 came in I acquired a NTE5 termination box an purchased a replacement faceplate from Solwise and connected to my router using a shielded RJ45 cable. When I updated to FTTC in 2017 I replaced the faceplate with a VDSL one from Solwise. I found no difference in sync rate between the two. I put it badly, but the point I was intending to make was that 70Mbs from a 80Mbs nominal line was not bad. As usual John W. made the point more clearly and concisely. fcs -- .^. .''`. /V\ : ;` : Frank Scott Sutton, London /( )\ `.
