So i switched over to Snap VDSL with VOIP from Orcon Genius ADSL and purchased a Fritz 7390.
I rewired my main terminal with Cat5e and have only a single phone jack in the house which the Fritzbox connects to. As i am 383m away from my exchange i have not needed to install a splitter at the outside TP.
The initial irk i had was when a Chorus tech called me up and said that he needed to check my setup at home to verify all was working, seems someone at SNAP forgot to add that info to the forms that were sent out to initially about the setup process. So ok, fine sorted and vola, functioning VDSL at some quite respectable rates:
Receive Direction Send Direction
Max. DSLAM throughput kbit/s 70000 10360
Min. DSLAM throughput kbit/s 360 360
Attainable throughput kbit/s 42692 12416
Current throughput kbit/s 42536 10352
Latency 8 ms 8 ms
Bitswap on on
Impulse Noise Protection 0.0 0.8
Signal-to-noise ratio dB 13 15
Line attenuation dB 11 102
Carrier record A43 A43
Profile 8b
What is really starting to anger me is the fact that at completely random times the phone will ring with a call from an unknown number, pick up the phone and nothing is there.
its not a problem when im home since i've tied my S3 into the home calling but when i get phone calls from midnight to 5am and have to start unplugging my phone, then there is a problem.
I saw a previous thread in these forums about an identical issue but there was no conclusion to it. SNAP have apparently changed me to their new VOIP system but:

Does anyone here have a solution or know of a way that this can be dealt with? I cannot block hidden numbers as people call me that have hidden numbers.
