I had a look at one at a customer site today. The Penrose exchange was
upgraded last night and nothing worked this morning.
The contractor who installed it yesterday hadn't even tried to get the
ethernet settings right. How hard is it to dump a config off the old modem?
Also, AOL seem to be having some authentication problems this morning as
well. (It never rains, it blimmin' pours!)

I don't remember seeing it either, but i'll have another look next time I'm
out there.

I think script is still there on the Admin login

It may depend on which login you use, but it does seem a simpler interface.

I believe it's not relevant. Early testing seems to indicate you don't need
to move them on this router for the pinholes to work.

Probably due to better signal processing as a result of the exchange
upgrades to the newer ANSI standard, and/or a better chipset.
My M11 showed a similar improvement over the M10.
Other things I noticed:
You can now set pinholes on numeric IP protocols from the web interface
You can do subsystem restarts (eg just DSL)
This 'Nokia' appears to be an OEM'd Alcatel
(according to the firmware anyhow)
