Who can blame them. The regulatory requirements to make any sort of a/vdsl modem and get it approved in enough global markets are way to expensive for there low margin product line. Would be very very nice to see a manufacturer build that unit. I would take quite a few if it was comparable with routeros Matt -- /* Matt Perkins Direct 1300 137 379 Spectrum Networks Ptd. Ltd.

Hi Philip
Have a read of http://forum.mikrotik.com/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=104109
My understanding is that the Metanoia product isn't complete but they'd sell it to an OEM who can produce a final product. At the very least it'd need to be supported in RouterOS. I emailed the link to the module to Mikrotik, and they weren't at all interested unfortunately.

Russell

Hi Russell,
The Metanoia link I provided is to a VDSL2 SFP module, one that is already being manufactured - I wasn't suggesting that Mikrotik should make one, I was pointing out that one exists :)

I contacted Mikrotik about that back in March. Their response was:
"We are not planning to manufacture such SFP modules in near future."

Hi Mike,
Have you looked at this page? http://whirlpool.net.au/wiki/fttn_registered_modem_router
I really want to see if one of these work, but haven't investigated suppliers or anything yet: http://www.metanoia-comm.com/product_d.php?id=21
An SFP module as a VDSL modem sounds very tidy - just drop one in an RB2011 and away you go!

Hi Folks,
A few months back, I asked for opinions on a good adsl modem to use a bridge for MikroTik PPPoE.
With increase in prevalence of VDSL services (especially with #nbwhen ;) does anyone have some opinion of readily available and 'good' (not necessarily cheap ;) vdsl modems?
Cheers!
Mike.
