Yes I've entered the 60 and 61 lines.
Even tried without the 60 line, as I read somewhere that the 60 line was no longer needed - neither combination worked though

Do you have a Vigor, is it working for you today - any chance of some screenshots, so I can triple check my settings
I read everywhere that the login / password details are no longer required, and could be anything, as long as it's Hex?

My Sky fibre connection through my Vigor 2860n+ only gets about 2500Kbps, rather than the 5500 I get through my skyq er115 router.
Anyone any ideas why I get such a drop.......I guess I must have a setting wrong, but I have rechecked......I literally just take the purple dsl wire from the back of the sky box and plug it into the Draytek.......wait 3 mins or so for it to connect.
I know my fibre connection is rubbish and slow, that's just where I am, but getting just about half of it with the draytek is even worse.
Cheers
