well I can only surmise that it is a timeout issue with posting.
To many variables to consider.
But the first would be the westell and the dsl service.
eight years is a long time for hardware technology for connectivity.
Plus it could be compatibility with it on your current service.
There is a critter called docsys.
if the westell is not compatible with the newer versions of docsys.
then you don't get the speed you expect.
Since I don't know the specs of the modem or your ISP service.
I don't use dsl I have cable.
and I had connection speed issues and it was due to my cable modem only supported docsys 2. not 3.0.
I had dropped connections resets etc.
It was only until I replaced my modem to one that supports docsys 3 did my problems go away.
But I don't see how this is a bug with a stable version such as ubb7.5.7
