Hi

I'm thinking of going with snap naked vdsl.

I was thinkg of using a Asus RT-N56U 11N Dual Band instead of the fritzbox does anyone used know if this should work with SNAP VDSL.

Or any suggestions on a similar performing router.

Thanks

Peter

That's just a router, you need a router with a built in VDSL modem, or that router an an external VDSL modem.

What modem are you planning on using?

If you get something like a Zyxel P870H it'll work fine in bridge mode.

I just remembered I have a cisco 870 lying around do they do vdsl2?

I will have a look when I get home otherwise that zyxel looks pretty good and I'll use that in bridgemode.

No you would need something like an 887VA for VDSL.
