Cisco 887VA with VDSL2 vectoring on XS4All/KPN

Note: This post is in Dutch since it’s targeted towards a Dutch audience.

Vandaag werd op kantoor onze VDSL2 verbinding van 50Mbit (non-vectoring) naar 65Mbit (vectoring) geupgrade door XS4All. Dat liep niet helemaal lekker. Onze Cisco 887VA router/modem kon daar niet goed mee overweg.

Na wat zoeken (uren) kwam ik er achter dat er een andere firmware nodig is, te weten VA_A_38k1_B_38h_24g1.bin

Om iedereen de moeite te besparen, deze firmware is hier te downloaden. (Hekel aan dat Cisco alles achter logins plaatst!)

Plaats vervolgens de firmware in de router door middel van TFTP of een HTTP-copy en dan is het slechts dit stukje configuratie:

!         
controller VDSL 0
 firmware filename flash:VA_A_38k1_B_38h_24g1.bin
!

Als ik nu in de Cisco kijk zie ik dit:
