There are no new features, just driver updates and bug fixes.

Thanks. One other thing, AFAIK you don't support the use of telnet, but I'm currently trying to cap my line using the command 'adsl configure/configure1 --maxDataRate 40000 10000 100000'. However, whenever I use any of these 2 commands, the downstream resyncs at a much slower rate than the cap (my line can acheive a much higher downstream rate than the cap, however I'm trying to force DLM to use RTX low instead of high, on the downstream (there are many threads on other forums proving that this can be achieved by applying a cap)). Any ideas?

They won't comment on telnet commands

Ok, fair enough. Well, once again, I came home to find most websites inaccessible, so as usual I had to reboot the CPE. Seems like this CPE is still quite bug ridden!

Others seem to be fine running this firmware, without a need to reboot after at least 16 days uptime.

I see the same issue with my 8800AXL R2.

I typically use Chrome but when accessing the CPE over the web, I've seen the same issue with Edge.

Just wanted to say thanks for your efforts with the latest FW too. My 8800AXL R2 has been solid since having it installed, over a week ago.

I'll update to the official version ASAP.

Attached is the newer firmware that should resolve the double login issue, can you test it for me.

Thanks in advance

Thank you.

I've not managed to update to the official version of the previous test version yet, so will go straight to this one when I do manage it.

The test version is still holding strong at 11D 11H currently though. So great work on this! :)

Cheers,

Paul
