If you are, I skimmed the documentation and I see no mention of any configuration options (or status output) from the router. You might be able to get somewhere with Netgear support but it may also be a good idea to verify that all of your filters are ADSL2+ capable.
I am running the latest firmware. First thing I checked.
You're right about the documentation. Modem sync is automatic. It will sync at ADSL2+ automatically if the ISP is delivering a ADSL2+ signal. It reverts to ADSL2 if not, and to ADSL1 if it can't get ADSL2. No user control on this although I'm still hanging a bit with netgear, but that's how I understand it.
I am using ADSL2+ capable filters, at least sonic tells me they are ADSL2+ capable; I bought them from sonic when they told me I needed new filters.
I'm reasonably convinced that it's not on netgear. It appears to be a problem with sonic promising service they are unable to deliver.
