Vigor 165 Annex A only running 17a was created by ghostworks
I just received 2 x Draytek 165 Annex A to replace my 2 x VDSL SFP modules that are currently installed in my Ubiquiti Gateway Pro 4 which only go up to 17a ( 120Mb down / 22MB up ) . since my lines are Super-Vectoring 35b Capped at 200Mb down and 22Mb up by my ISP howver the line itself is capable ( connected at ) 300Mb down / 100Mb up as was tested by Asus DSL-AC88u which i used to confirm the lines before installing at another location / Site

These new 165 Annex A only see's the line as 17a and way slower that the VDSL SFP Modules

Draytek 165 Annex A ( Down speed @ 70mb / Up speed @ 6Mb ) for both

Compared to...

VDSL SFP Module ( DownSpeed @ 120Mb / Up speed @ 22Mb )

will draytek soon release a new firmware shortly

Wel, it's not a product sold in the UK/Ireland or of use to 99% of people so the UK dev. team won't support it or put any effort into compatibility testing, tuning etc. You're best off finding a product which is supported/recommended for whichever ISP you have (surely the ISP provided something).

True not for sales as of yet for UK but it is Annex A so supposed to work ....

I have had loads of 130's both in Annex A and Annex B varients which both worked fine

Why would you buy an Annex B if you can't get support or BT approved firmware?

If you read properly I said the 165 I bought is annex A , I only mentioned that previously I have in possession both Annex A & B for the 130’s and they all worked fine for IOM ( Isle of Man )

And if you'd read properly, and learn some manners, you'd see that I didn't referring to the Vigor 165 but implicitly the Vigor 130 which you said was Annex B.....
