I'm looking to buy but which one is best?

I've read extremely good reviews for the 7800DXL but I also want VPN support.

Is VPN the only difference between DXL and DX?

Yep if you need a VPN model, go for the Bipac 7800DX

Thanks for your prompt reply,

7800DX sounds ideal :) Is there a newer release with the same features as 7800DX? IF I'm spending out for a router I'd ideally like the best I can get if that makes sense

Right now the 7800DX is the best model that has VPN on board, we will be releasing another model soon, but ETA yet :D

That's good to hear Ive bought one :D

I'm currently on 20CN ADSL with a line sync at 8Mbps and my broadband is pretty useless and looking to improve it if possible :)

You might be able to tweak to SNR to improve your download sync rate, SNR table attached

Nope, the SNR tweak will only effect your ADSL downstream sync rate

Hi, my billion router has been running for a few dats but I'm still experiencing buffering issues especially if more than 1 person is using the internet?

Try setting the SNR to 3 or 2 and see if the downstream sync value changes
