Hi All,

My first post I actually have access to a business virgin superhub 2 with the option to enable modem mode.

Problem is Virgin said it does work but is not supported, so I have to figure out how configure the Draytek 2820 myself.

The reason I am changing is the previous firmware used to loose all its setting and the new firmware seems to crash the hub whenever anything big happens, e.g. a user upgraded so dropbox pro and started to upload all his file to this and the superhub died every hour.

We have the 5 IP address option with virgin and although I worked in IT for 25 years for the last year I have been focusing on other things so my knowledge is a bit less so some to the technical things you guys have been talking about (L2TP for connecting form modem to VM) I had not idea it did this ( if it have that right).

My plan is to just put the same setting that I type into the super hub into the Draytek instead and see if that works, and if not add the username and password that I would normally type into the superhub after it looses its settings.

I'll let you know how I get on and if anyone has done this already let me know as it will be easier than trying to work this out myself.
