Hi all,

I have some problems with a new 50mb line with 5 static IPs connected to a Draytek 2860N using SH1.

I know are is a major issues with modem mode and I have read most of the posts in this forum about it - after 45 minutes to trying to get modem mode working I gave up and connected the Draytek using the second useable IP addresses in my allocation, set the gateway as the internal IP of the SH and turned off DHCP and firewall at the SH - the connection is working and all computers are able to connect to the internet!

Just a few problems though...

1. I set the SH1 LAN IP to 192.168.1.254 however I can't connect to the UI from any browser on any computer - is this because its connected to the WAN2 port of the Draytek and not to a LAN port?

2. My simple PPTP VPN setup on the Draytek no longer connects, I tried to see if there are any references to WAN1 to change it to WAN2 but couldn't find any - Do I need to turn VPN on, on the SH1 too? Even if i'm exclusively connecting to the Draytek?

Note: I changed my DNS servers on the Draytek to Google's 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4 as the ones supplied (192.168.4.100 and 192.168.8.100 were being very slow and were not resolving on some computers.

Thanks,
Naysan

Ignore point 2, I got it working by configuring L2TP instead.
