D6200 DSL statistics / connection speed
Hi all,
Sorry if this is a dumb question, I have looked online and through the manual to no avail.
All previous routers I have used allowed me to get DSL statistics, what actual rate it had train...

"it"? "Googled"/"searched" for _what_? And now I (with my weak
psychic powers) should know what you found, where?> [...] The only statistics I could find were WAN/LAN not the modem.
What do you think that "WAN" means here?

The lower section of that report ("ADSL Link [...]") refers to the
modem. (I assume that there's something similar for VDSL, but all I've
seen is ADSL.) My D7000[v1] (V1.0.1.70_1.0.1) shows a page very like
that picture in the D6200 User Manual.What, exactly, do you seek which is not shown there?

Where "online"? ("online" is a very big place.) Which "the manual"?
Visit http://netgear.com/support , put in your model number, and look
for Documentation. Get the User Manual. Read. Look for "Statistics".

Hi,
I have "Googled" it, searched the Netgear community, and looked through the Netgear D6200 User Manual. The only statistics I could find were WAN/LAN not the modem.
Many thanks,
Garry

Hi,
Show statistics is indeed the option I needed. I had tried it earlier, but I was expecting a lot more DSL information so I blindly overlooked it.
While it isn't super informatrive, it does give me enough to talk to the line company.
Many thanks, sorry that I bothered the forum with something that was in front of me all along.
And thanks for the very prompt replies!!
