let me know if the version you have syncs the same as bt openreach modem, if it does post the link and ill give it a try.
I don't know what my Openreach modem was syncing at, but I was getting the "full speed" thing according to BT.
With 3.6.2 RC4 I am now syncing at 20000 up, 79984 down, with SNRs of 129 and 111 respectively, which is huge improvement over not syncing at all!
That's the good news. Using the unscientific speedtest.net and a variety of servers, with the Openreach modem I was seeing a peak of just over 75mbps down and 17.5mbps up. With the Draytek and this firmware, I'm getting comparable down (~73 mbps), but the best I've managed on about 10 speedtests, with a variety of servers, is 11.5mbps up. This is of course unscientific, but you'd expect 9:15 on a Sunday morning to be fairly quiet, traffic-wise, wouldn't you? I'll give it a go at various times over the next day or so, and report back.
BTW, I've turned off the QoS overhead thing, as suggested above, although with ADSL in the past I found that this setting was irrelevant unless QoS was turned on.
Feel free to try the file sent to me by Draytek. It'll be here for the next few days:

but use at your own risk, of course.
