adsl2+ on adsl line

seh567

Hi, have just purchased a TP-Link adsl2+ modem router model TD-W8920G on ebay but I only have an adsl phone connection at the moment. Does anyone know if this will work on this existing line?. I have been using a normal Zyxel adsl wireless router with no trouble but I thought I would get an Adsl2+ router as I believe they are upgrading our broadband in this area in the coming months. Thanks

Yes, provided the exchange is adsl2 enabled and you are within the distance from the exchange

You do need a adsl2 router. Some ISP state which router will work my own provider states that some wont work with them due to chips in the router is best to check

ADSL2+ routers are generally backwards compatible and perfectly capable of operating at ADSL rates/protocol. If you plug your ADSL settings into the ADSL2+ router it should work fine with your existing connection, then as/when you upgrade to an ADSL2+ service with your ISP you should find yourself able to benefit from improved speeds (tho might need some tweaking of your router's config as your ISP should advise)
