I picked up a broken XR1000 the other day, and indeed, it really was broken! But the Antenna are fine. They are original Netgear SMA female connectors. If anyone wants them, they can have them free. Just let me know.

I used to get this sort of issue when Openreach was doing local maintenance. Always seemed to be late in the evening at about the same time.

I just checked QOS on mine and it seems to be working fine. The thing I would check is are you sure the router is detecting the game? Look for the "LEDs" in the user interface lighting up to see if it is detecting high priority traffic.

I have made a new post about this with some screenshots and additional problems ( hence why I started a new thread ).

Ah it's OK, it was confused. I rebooted it and it sorted it out. That is something I find with these routers, the network map can go a little crazy.

Two IPv4. It was strange. It had two devices online. One had the ip 192.168.1.12, 192.168.1.13 and the second device was 192.168.1.12 There was also one PC that didn't show up at all. In the end I rebooted the PC and the problem seems to have gone. I wonder though, should there be some sort of reboot or rest button on the map?

to make matters worse, one of the IP addresses is that of a different PC. I don't understand how that could happen

Mind you, with BT shutting down all the exchanges in the very near future, there is bound to be larger demand for voip. Not just with Zen, but all of them.

Apparently no other router works with Zen "Digital Voice" so it would be a real boost if Netduma did!

Well no because the support staff were really unhappy that people could not use their own routers. They indicated to me that they get a lot of complaints about it.

One thing I would worry about though is that I spent all day talking to Zen support ( and as far as support is concerned they are good ) and to other forums, and not once did anyone suggest using both routers.

I prefer that too. No point in making things too complicated!

I didn't know it was possible to do that. Too late now though, I have already bought an ATA and will arrange to use a different VOIP service. It's always a future option though. I guess the advantage is that the XR1000 gets to be first now!

How is that configured? I mean you have two routers on one internet connection.

That's fascinating.
