I want to find out can I use the below modem (TP-LINK TD-W8960N ADSL modem) as VDSL mode, so I have seen this post which the Rao said :

Will an ADSL2+ modem work with a VDSL input connection?

Yes. It does.

I am using D-Link 2750u modem for a VDSL connection of 16 MBPS for more than 2 years. I am getting 14.5 download speed and 1 MBPS upload speed. I am within 2 Kilometers distance from the telephone exchange.

And the TP-LINK TD-W8960N (ADSL2+)has had 10 Mb/s upload, 100/s Mb download speed as you can see below:

I know the VDSL speed is above 50Mb/s and using the TP-LINK TD-W8960N ADSL2+ modem with around 100Mb/s speed, is ok for us.

So, if possible, I like to have some comment about can I use the TP-LINK TD-W8960N modem as VDSL modem?

    You provided a link to the product in question, but apparently you didn't read all of it. About a third-way down the page, under "Product description" and "Compatible ISPs", there's the explicit declaration of ***"Not compatible with VDSL service"***. – sawdust Jul 13 '21 at 06:32

The TD-W8960N is only an ADSL modem – it literally does not have the hardware that could understand or generate VDSL signals.

Many ISPs provide "VDSL" connections that actually support both VDSL and ADSL modems, so the TD-W8960N should still work with such a connection – but only in ADSL2+ mode and ADSL2+ speeds.
