It will probably be the same elsewhere, because they are CHEAP. I've used a few NZ Telco supplied routers over the years and a couple of cheap bought ones. All had some issue or the other. Nowadays I put up with or workaround any issues.
Cheers,

On a side note - the various ADSL broadband routers supplied by the NZ telcos all seem to have missing or broken bits - the vodafone one doesn't open the firewall properly for incoming http - the telecom device allows one to specify a different IP address for the router but not the gw address
- thus it only works if you use their default IP/gw address. So many hours
wasted.
