I am using 8800Nl v1. with:
Software Version 2.32d.dh14
DSL PHY and Driver Version A2pv6F039g1.d24m.
Are the above up to date,please?

My internet connection is ADSL2+
My computer is Windows 10 64bit Home

The router connects by Wi-Fi to: Canon Multifunction; Internet radio:
by power line to TV HDR, and there is Ethernet from router to computer.

I am confused by IGMP snooping. For my personal set up should it be enabled,
and, if it should be enabled, should it be set to standard or blocking mode?

Thank you in expectation of your advice. I apologise if my questions are thought naive.

Latest firmware is 2.32e.dh4

IGMP snooping mode should be only enabled if you have BT/PlusNet/Talktalk IPTV service, if you don't have any of these services you can leave the settings on 'Blocking Mode'

What I mean is you should only enable 'Standard Mode' if you have IPTV, if you don't have IPTV leave the settings on 'Blocking Mode'
