Unless its very cheap or old stock most CAT6 connectors will do both cable types. For CAT5/E connectors its a different story and the market place is still flooded with all 3 types. Not only that but it staggers the cable which is what the CAT6 spec calls for, see...

Not what i listed the ones i listed are suitable for both cable types. You will be hard pressed to find stranded only CAT6/6A connectors nowadays (CAT 5 you can still easily get both) The images here explain what are for which cable... http://www.l-com.com/content/Article.aspx?Type=N&ID=10460...

http://www.kenable.co.uk/product_info.php?products_id=3252 Dirty cheap, easy to use, will work fine with Solid or stranded, ive used probably a hundred of them.

Have a read through this thread here https://forums.overclockers.co.uk/showthread.php?t=18697042 if you want to wire things. I go over basically the stuff you will need and general costs in several posts.

The Asus RT-N56U is only a 600N wireless router there is no way it will do gigabit over wifi. The speed test above is more than likely done over a wired connection, especially give the 1ms ping and the upload beating the download. If the OP wants a device which is able to use the internet at...

Open router web interface and input the username and password it should then connect

Buy a VDSL capable device unless in the future you want to spend more money. If at any time you upgrade to FTTC in the future then an ADSL modem/router will only be able to perform router duties. I recommend a Netgear D6400 or a TPLink Archer VR900 the small extra cost IMO is worth it and the...

The latest will normally be best. What do you mean by wifi dropping out? DO you mean things at a long distance from the device will not connect or do you mean even if sat next to the device wifi will not connect? If things work when close to the device wifi is not dropping out it is just not...

Will work fine with basically any ISP seeing as the C7 is only a router no modem. You would be hard pressed to find any modern router that does not support RFC 1483 which is what MER encapsulation requires. Problems occur with all in one (modem and router devices) when the modem side does not...

First sorry for a bit of a late reply......... If everything works as it should when connected to the TEST socket (IE socket behind the master faceplate) phone rings etc etc then that is/was an extension wiring issue. Look around on fleabay etc and buy some SOLID CORE CAT5E/CAT6 cable do...

STOP EVERYTHING YOU ARE DOING WITH THE EXTENSION WIRING If the phone your end is not ringing the first steps you should take is ensure it is not the extensions causing the issue first. 1. Plug a landline phone one known to work (or if possible have two to make sure) into the MASTER TEST...

Its nothing more than a homehub in a white case and probably has plusnet branding in the interface instead

New firmware for the D6400 today... More info on fixes etc here... http://kb.netgear.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/30006 Not upgraded myself yet but nice they are still improving it. Download firmware either via your D6400 routers interface or go here...

Hardwired to Switch or direct to router will not make much difference as long as the switch is working properly. If latency is that important forget wireless all together and stick to wired for everything. 400M should still yield 65+Mb.

As well as any other device, if you intend to use this in addition to another brand this like any will need to be in good range of the other device. The TPLINK has a more detailed (if thats the right way to explain it) interface, if you are unfamiliar with things like RTS theshold, IPsec...

No not planning to do anything with the asus AC68U or Netgears. Would be no real benefit unless you can think of any. PS Tplink 8960 you have is a good device only N300 wifi but i own one of them and its what i used when i had ADSL, you can tweak the noise margin in it also on ADSL :)

I bought a Netgear D6400 in the end babis3g and apart from some annoying long pauses when you alter some settings in its web gui (mainly when you initially set things up like wifi names etc) its pretty much everything i wanted. Has been 100% reliable since i bought it, no disconnects and no DLM...

I think that trial happened way back in 2012. I doubt it is still going on though i could be wrong. Either way if for a change the device reports stats correct then via telnet it should say G.993.5 as connection method if you have G.vectore enabled. Do you mean this post here...

NOPE look at his SNR and attenuation, his line is performing the best it can for the vdsl profile he is on. Although it says profile 30a NOBODY apart from one ISP i know of (a small local project) has that enabled neither BT or Eircom have it AFAIK (Bt defo do not). If it were available then he...

G.INP may have been enabled G.vector would not its not enabled on any of BTs network.
