LLU ADSL2+ hardware tests
We are always looking at ways for our customers to achieve the fastest possible speeds, so with the recent rollout of our new LLU ADSL2+ services we have tested a number of routers on the LLU platform to compare them against each other.

The ones marked "Recomm." are routers that we recommend you use as these will give you the best speed and stability. In most cases as long as the router is on the Broadcom chipset you would normally see a much better downstream speed as opposed to any other chipset. The reason for this is that the equipment at the exchange is also using Broadcom, so it's a perfect match.

We currently stock some of the below recommended routers at great prices - https://adsl24.co.uk/store/

KEY:

Router - the router make/model
Chipset - the ADSL2+ chipset in the router
Compat. - indicates whether the router can be configured to connect to our LLU service*.
Recomm. - indicates whether we recommend this router for use on our LLU service
Annex M - indicates whether the router supports upload speeds of up to 2.5 Mb on our Pro package
Setup - click this to view setup instructions for this router on our LLU service


* Please note: Routers marked as "Compatible" but not "Recommended" will connect to the LLU service, but you may have speed or stability issues with these routers due to the old chipset it uses.
