Distribute improved firmware for ZyXel VMG 1312-B10A which fixes the lack of support for MTU 1508 in modem-only

Firmware is now available for the ZyXel VMG 1312-B10A which fixes the lack of support for MTU 1508 in modem-only. It just works, fine. A pre-built bin file is available and the complete sources are I'm told on github and I have read the build instructions, but have not built it from scratch myself. One or two others that I know of are using it. It was built by someone who had got fed up with ZyXel’s inertia / don’t-care attitude.

Would AA be willing to evaluate it?

One can build the whole thing from source. The source code for the MTU-1508 patch is available, so it can be reviewed. The rest of the required source code can be obtained directly from ZyXEL if this is preferred for security reassurance. ZyXEL is happy to just give it out. This can be used to demonstrate that there’s nothing nefarious in the source code being used in the build.
