Well that didn't entirely go to plan today
.
Can I list the various settings in the Hitron which I think are relevant, and if you don't mind, maybe compare to your settings ?
Basic Settings /LAN Settings : IP Address is the first of the 5 usables
Subnet mask 255.255.255.248
DHCP Enabled
DHCP start is the 2nd of the 5 usables, and
DHCP End is the 5th of the 5 usables.
Basic Settings / Gateway Function : UPNP IGD = Enabled
DMZ Settings = Disabled
Administration / Diagnostics : Ping works to a remote server on the internet
Administration / Time Settings : strangely this is set to GMT +1, but I've not changed this
VMB IP Service : LAN Default Gateway IP : is the 1st of the 5 usable IPs
GRE Tunnel State = Connected
and shows : Your static IP is 94.xxx.xxx.73/29 - which agrees with all other mentions of the static IPs
Firewall Settings : IP4 : No application or traffic is blocked
Service Filter is Disabled
Device Filter is Allow All
If the above all checks OK, I could send the settings of the Draytek.
What's happening is that broadband service seems to be working ok on the Hitron. I can Ping out across the internet successfully.
I connect the Draytek via WAN2. I can Ping from the Draytek to the Static IP of the Hitron (94.xxx.xxx.73). Think I can also ping to its 192.168.0.1 address. But trying to Ping out to the internet fails, both via the Draytek's Ping function, and Windows Ping function.
Trying to think basically here, it's as if the Hitron is allowing connection to its LAN side, but not through to its WAN side.
NB : this was done today using a Vigor 2830n (not the unit I had been trying last week).
Thanks,
