After much of shopping around I have opted to buy Vigor 2860n version of the router/modem for my newly activated VDSL from PlusNet. It has only been 3 days so far, modem setup was breaze, worked brilliantly first time round. I have notice that in router web control panel, it always shows my DSL/ADSL port in orange / amber rather than green which incidently my LAN PORT 1 is. In addition to that on the LAN PORT 6 I have network printer (CANON LBP 5050DN) installed, which also shows orange / amber.

Now is it normal? or am I missing something.

Please not physical light on the unit itself all are green and I have internet access (all be it at 31 mbits out of promised 80 mbits) as well as all my computers can see my network printer.

Reason for asking this is I have tried to downlod a ubuntu 13.04 iso image from UKMIRROR Services. For starange reason on my VDSL (on Home Office line) it takes around 7 Minutes and I have SKY broadband for home use also take around 7 minutes for the same file, which about 878MB in size. Based on that evaluation my SKY Broadband is out doing my VDSL
Any suggestions??????????

Orange normally means the device is connected at 10/100 network device speed and green for 1gbps device speed.

Most printers will only connect at the lower speed. Nothing to worry about.
