They are not locked to 2degrees and I would buy one off market place or Trademe

I have a 7530AX I bought from gowifi.co.nz. It is still in its box unopened, and I do not need it. Originally I bought it to possibly rule out the router as the cause of my dying VDSL, but it arrived the day after the Chorus guy came out, told me he'd fixed two breaks in the line and that I should never have got VDSL in the first place because of the way the line was provisioned. It was syncing for about a minute and dropping and then resyncing over and over even after that so it was clearly not the router ... Anyway - if you want to cut out the middle man DM me. Otherwise it's just going to sit in its box unopened forever.
