Use as a modem? Why? Have you found any evidence that the D7800
supports g.fast?

As always, an actual version number would be more useful than your
opinion of what's "latest" today.

Think, for a moment, about how little useful information that

Traditionally, Netgear firmware has had trouble with some special

caused trouble there. If, that is, the physical DSL link were good. I
wouldn't bet on it, but you might try adding a "\" before the "|".
