Only VDSL2 cards can fall back to ADSL2+.
Yes, but what I was stating is that there is some hardware installed out there that isn't necessarily flagged as vdsl hardware and so tech support has to occasionally gamble on profile changes to confirm the type present. (Yes it's as ridiculous as it sounds)
You just need to go into equipment details to know...
Not even. The new WebCare system has specific drop down menus by technology. When you go to change the speed, you select the technology, and if there are no options on the list then that line coding technology is not supported by the port. If the options come up, then they are available to select. No guessing or gambling.
