Ordered max on the 22/11/06
Router failed delivery on the 24/11/06 so re delivered on the 25/11/06
Activation date given as 30/11/06
Date actually activated 30/11/06

Modulation: G.992.1 Annex A
Bandwidth (Up/Down) [kbps/kbps]: 416 / 7,136
Data Transferred (Sent/Received) [MB/MB]: 199.69 / 611.98
Output Power (Up/Down) [dBm]: 0.5 / 19.5
Line Attenuation (Up/Down) [dB]: 26.5 / 43.0
SN Margin (Up/Down) [dB]: 14.0 / 3.5

Using my speedtouch 585v6 router as it gives better line stats and enables a faster connection.
I am synced faster than I was when on adsl max, and speedtests I have done seem consistent unlike max
