Draytek Vigor 2850 speed on BT Infinity 2

Fishcake · 7 Jun 2012 at 21:38

I have BT Inifinity option 2. Using the HH3 I have download speed of 72Mbs. I want to upgrade my router and am thinking about the Vigor 2850. The draytek web site says in excess of 50Mbs for throughput. Has anyone got this router working at faster speeds than 50Mbs.

I have checked with draytek and they said they could not confirm it works at the BT Infinity 2 speeds and I cant find anything using the forum search :-(

I'd speculate it won't do much more than 50mbit wan to lan, otherwise they would be keen to point it out... Right?

Let us know how the sync speed compares to the standalone VDSL2 modem.

Fishcake, post speeds if possible after you install.

Ok sorry for the delay had the joy of Yodel (non) delivery to sort out...Anyway

Download speeds comparable to home hub (slower on average 70 v 74)
Upload speeds ~50% slower to home hub on average (13 HH v 7 draytek)

Any thoughts on the upload speed welcome!

That said wifi signal much stronger, ipad not falling off periodically and now have multiple vlans working perfectly. Also found the BT shop sells reconditioned draytek 2850n for ~50% discount so all in very happy.
