Good afternoon everyone,

I know that I am resurrecting a old thread, but I am now having the same issues with the 2701 losing the configuration settings on power loss, we have a UPS at our property but it only runs for about a hour and we can have longer outages here...

However, being on the phone to BT support now, they do not stock the 2700's anymore and only the 2701's. So my question is does anybody have a spare one, old or new that they could send me in exchange for some good English pounds?

Any help greatly appreciated!

EBAY -   there are normally quite a few there and often unopened.

Hi Robert Sherry,

Ebay is awash with surplus stock of the BT (2Wire) 2700HGV model. Typical price for a 2700 is just a few pounds. Some of the American models of 2Wire are washing up on our shores now.. these include the 3600HGV, 3800HGV and sometimes the 3801HGV. These are VDSL2-capable devices, ready for FTTC when it reaches your town.

Cheers, asbokid
