The WAN IP address will have been closed down. The BQM will obviously show red but I'm interested in what the modem does.

In the end I didn't have the patience to wait until the morning to test the router mode arrangement. I stayed up until 3.00 am instead.The connection appeared rock solid with no detectable drop outs.

Before going to bed I restored modem only mode. The result is all too clear.



I would obviously be interested in what you discover Seph. Meanwhile I need to ring CS again. I will not be in a strong position because they will inevitably point to my N66U as being the issue, not their kit. However, the point remains, that SH3 is the changed factor. Surely VM have a responsibility to ensure that their kit works with high quality mainstream routers such as mine.
