who does vodafone use as a carrier? I have been told it was talk talk so I'm very wary of jumping
Yes.
You will find people who will tell you they managed to get their PPoE username/password so they can use their own equipment. The number of people who do have this information is tiny. I've personally tried every single avenue open to me, including letters to the UK CEO and it has gone nowhere.
The Vodafone router is your standard affair, no better, no worse than anything else an ISP throws at you. For me it isn't a massive issue as I disable the onboard WiFi and use a Ubiquity unit.
But assume that you will be forced to use their router and if you manage to get your details then consider that a major bonus.

Hi all, I am one of those people that managed to obtain the radius username and password, it can be done. Make sure you use the Vodafone forum as reference and state a valid case to why you need it, just asking gets you nowhere. currently using a netgear knighthawk and its solid as a rock!
Didn't Vodafone acquire Cable & Wireless Worldwide which had previously absorbed the Bulldog network? I'd be surprised if Vodafone's broadband offering was someone else's service white-labelled, since they'd likely be losing money.
yeah, kind of, had plenty of disconnections and/or speed drops.@Banzai_Joe Did you already have issues with plusnet before you moved providers?

Thought VF might be better, and they were cheaper.
Well, that mostly true, but you never really know until you switch. Plusnet support was utter garbage, i could never get through to get any support from them.I think that points more towards actual line issues as opposed to ISP issues, I don't think any provider you switch to is going to improve things sadly.
