D8500 ADSL Annex M not working

Hi, I am just enquiring if there are plans to release  FW upgrade to enable ITU G.992.5 Annex M?

 

I currently have to use my old Modem Router as well as the D8500 to achieve Annex M, this is just extra power consumption that I would like to reduce.

 

Thanks,

 

Snuke.

Hello Snuke

 

I have no info on this but I would keep a look at firmware updates it would be listed in the release notes if it is.

Thanks for the reply DarrenM,

But that seems a bit of a throwaway solution- pretty much "If it happens it happens".

 

Is there a future firmware release changelog that lists what they are working on currrently?

I had a look through the user manual for the D8500, located here http://www.downloads.netgear.com/files/GDC/D8500/D8500_UM_EN.pdf


It specifically states that this modem is G.992.5 (ADSL2+) compliant, supporting Annex A and M (page 264)

 

Could you please advise the engineers that this feature is still not working. 

 

Regards,

 

Snuke.
